TEHRAN: Iranian opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi are still "in their homes," Tehran prosecutor Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi said on Wednesday, denying reports they had been jailed. "There is a limit to lies, and rumours of transferring Mr Mousavi and Karroubi to a prison are a sheer lie," Dolatabadi was quoted as saying by Mehr news agency.
"Using the term house arrest is not correct. Mr Mousavi and Karroubi, along with their wives, are in their homes."
Family members of the two men have said on their websites that Mousavi, Karroubi and their wives had been transferred to Tehran's Heshmatiyeh jail from their residences in the Iranian capital. The families indicated that no one was at the homes of the two leaders, which they said had been left in the dark, or appeared to be vacant.
