Iran's smoldering 3 political rift 4 is intensifying 5, after a key figure in Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard demanded Iran's top opposition leaders be put on trial for inciting unrest, following the country's disputed June 12 presidential election.
Iran's official news agency (IRNA) reports that Yadollah Javani, the head of the Guard's political bureau, wants opposition leader Mirhossein Moussavi, former President Mohammed Khatami, and defeated presidential candidate Mehdi Karroubi to be tried for inciting violence.
Javani accuses the three of trying to engineer what he calls a "velvet 6 revolution," and says with all the "documentation and irrefutable evidence over the failed coup 7," that it makes sense that these "key instigators be arrested, tried and punished."
Iran's supreme 8 leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has accused "enemies of Iran" of trying to instigate 9 a "velvet revolution," but has always stopped short of accusing top opposition leaders of involvement in such a coup.
Hundreds of opposition leaders, journalists, professors, and other protesters were jailed during weeks of unrest and dozens have been put on trial during two sessions of a revolutionary court in the past 10 days.
Iran's Press TV showed one defendant 10 from Saturday's trial, Mohammed Reza Zamani, whom it calls a monarchist, reading his alleged 11 confession 12 for provoking violence:
He says that his group plotted to carry out bombings and other violence leading to the overthrow 13 of the Islamic Republic. He also claims he had contacts with an alleged U.S. intelligence operative in Iraq, whom he says gave him a mobile phone.
Meanwhile, the official Iranian News Network, IRINN, says the head of the recently closed Kahrizak detention 14 center has been jailed due to widespread abuse of detainees and at least three deaths.
In an apparent effort to allay 15 public anger over prisoner abuse, Iranian police chief Esmail Ahmadi-Moghaddam announced the official's arrest:
He says that the director of the Kahrizak detention facility has been fired and sent to jail. He notes that three other policemen at the facility who beat prisoners have also been jailed.
Ahmadi-Moghaddam also admitted some of those arrested during recent unrest were tortured at the Kahrizak jail, which Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei ordered to be shut down for sub-standard treatment of prisoners.
Top opposition leaders Mirhossein Mousavi and former president Mohammed Khatami have repeatedly demanded the immediate 16 release of all detainees, insisting that their confessions 17 were made under duress 18 and therefore were "illegitimate."
