Clashes on second day of Iran protests
Clashes erupted for a second straight night in Tehran, with anti-riot police and hard-line vigilantes beating up teenage demonstrators who had taken to the streets to denounce supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Dozens of hard-line vigilantes on motorbikes chased down around 300 mostly teenage protesters yesterday, beating them with sticks in the streets outside a Tehran University dormitory in the city’s Amirabad district. Several people were seen being carried away with head injuries.
