Iranian MP calls for probe into al-Majed’s death

A senior Iranian lawmaker has raised doubts about the death of Saudi national Majed al-Majed who masterminded the twin bombings outside Iran’s Embassy in Beirut last November, Press TV reported. Chairman of the Foreign Policy and National Security Committee of Majlis Alaeddin Boroujerdi described Majed al-Majed’s death as “very ambiguous and questionable” and called on Beirut to launch a comprehensive investigation into the case. “Under the current circumstances, it is necessary for the Lebanese government to conduct tests and perform an autopsy on al-Majed to establish the cause of his death and prepare a report on that,” Boroujerdi said, urging Beirut to launch a special inquiry into the case if evidence shows the Saudi national did not die a natural death.
