Tehran, Iran, Jul. 28 – Residents of the central Iranian city of Arak, famous as the site of a heavy-water reactor the authorities are building, held a protest last week against the government's suspected nuclear weapons projects, Iran Focus has learnt.
The Iranian opposition satellite station Simaye Azadi aired footage of the rally on Sunday following an apparent explosion at a petro-chemical factory in Arak.
The television station said it had received the footage from supporters of the main opposition group Mojahedin-e Khalq.
"Nuclear energy = money in the pocket of the leader", the demonstrators chanted, in a reference to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. "Nuclear energy = killer of the people", they added.
