Iran’s attorney general Mohammad Movahedi Azad has warned that people taking part in nationwide protests will be treated as an “enemy of God”, an offence that can lead to the death penalty under Iranian law. News agency AP, citing a US-based rights group, said at least 116 people have been killed and more than 2,600 detained since demonstrations began on December 28. The unrest has spread across Tehran and several provinces, including Fars, Ilam and Kermanshah. Authorities have not released official figures. Internet access has been largely cut for three days, making it hard to confirm events on the ground. The FBI is not involved. (PC: X)
