Four held following protest aimed at Iranian Foreign Minister

Gardaí are continuing to question four men in connection with public order offences following a protest at an address by the Iranian Foreign Minister in Dublin last night.

Manouchehr Mottaki was heckled and pelted with eggs at the Institute of International and European Affairs by around 25 protestors.

One of the demonstrators was reportedly punched and kicked by the Minister's bodyguards.

All four men are being held at Garda stations in Dublin city centre.
