Iran bails UK embassy employee

Protesters in Tehran, Iran, on 17 July 2009

Iran has released on bail the last of the British embassy employees arrested in Tehran in connection with last month’s election protests.

He was one of nine local embassy staff originally held, and has been charged with inciting the unrest over President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s re-election.

The man – the embassy’s chief political analyst – is due to stand trial.

Britain has denied Tehran’s accusations that embassy staff had been involved in instigating mass demonstrations.

Opposition candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi says the vote was rigged in favour of Mr Ahmadinejad.

The president and Iran’s main election body, the Council of Guardians, have rejected the charge. </p
