Monday, 09 May 2011 05:36 'Iran's intelligence minister says the country has reliable information that former head of the al-Qaeda terrorist group Osama bin Laden died of disease some time ago. “We have accurate information that bin Laden died of illness some time ago,” Heidar Moslehi told reporters on the sidelines of a Cabinet meeting on Sunday. He questioned Washington's claim that bin Laden was killed by American troops in a hiding compound in Pakistan on May 1. “If the US military and intelligence apparatus have really arrested or killed bin Laden, why don't they show him (his dead body) why have they thrown his corpse into the sea?” Moslehi asked.'

Sunday's protest comes one day after authorities imposed an overnight curfew in the capital and its surrounding areas. Sources say riot police clashed with protesters and attacked the media covering the event in central Tunis. "The police reaction is too extreme against the people. It's true there are criminals among the protesters, but the reaction is still too cruel. It is a return to the days of Ben Ali," Reuters quoted a protester as saying.'
