Iranian election body disqualifies reformists in vote
Iran's Guardian Council announced more than 10 percent of nearly 6,858 candidates were disqualified ahead of next month's elections. Most refusals target reformists, with 25 percent due to affiliation with illegal groups and 17 percent for lack of adherence to Islam and the constitution. About 20 percent faced corruption charges and 13 percent for links to the former monarchy. Disqualified candidates may appeal within three days.
