TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iranian reformist cleric Mehdi Karoubi on Wednesday asked to meet top officials including the president to be able to present evidence of the rape of some detained post-election protesters, his party said.
The Etemad-e Melli website said Karoubi made the call in a letter to parliament speaker Ali Larijani, who has dismissed Karoubi's rape allegations last week as "baseless."
The meeting should be attended by Larijani, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, judiciary chief Ayatollah Sadeq Larijani, former president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani and the state prosecutor, Karoubi said.

Mr. Karoubi!
by Reza-Rio de Janeiro on Wed Aug 19, 2009 01:15 PM PDTMr. Karoubi and other Iranians inside Iran must present their case to the "International Criminal Court" in Hague, Holland to create a global exposure and proving their case to this high court, If they do, they can actually see a verdict of arrest for all the Islamic Republic's criminal leader, President , officials and members c that have committed undenaible crimes against humanity and Iranians.
Islamis Republic Regime and all its EVIL leader, President and officials/members are Psycho-path criminals and presenting "Rape Evidence" doesn't serve justice and is a lost cause... If anything, it would only make all these filthy I.R. viscous animals happy to hear about raping!!! That is what they live their dirty lives for...
