| 83. AFP bureau chief expelled from Iran |
|
...Agence France-Presse has said that its deputy bureau chief in Tehran has been expelled from Iran.
The agency said that Jay Deshmukh left Iran this morning shortly after being notified of the expulsion order. AFP said Iranian authorities gave no reason for the decision to expel Deshmukh. He simply "received the order to leave." Deshmukh was among 10 or so foreign journalists whose press cards were withdrawn on 15 February, a day after an opposition rally by tens of thousands in solidarity with Egypt's popular uprising. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/blog/2011/mar/11/libya-gaddafi-uprising?intcmp=239   |
