Two Mousavi aides released from prison
 Two senior aides to Iran's defeated presidential candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi have been released from prison. Alireza Beheshti and Mohamad-Reza Tajik were both released on bail, the website of the Tehran judiciary announced on Tuesday. The statement did not elaborate on the amount of the bail for the two men. Beheshti, the son of the late Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti, the martyred head of Iran's judiciary in June 1981, was arrested more than a month ago. Tajik, who has served as vice president of the Strategic Studies Center during President Khatami's government, was also among the dozens of people detained for involvement in the post-election riots in Iran.
