Iran's supreme leader has said Saudi Arabia should
apologise for a crush outside the Muslim holy city of Mecca that killed
769 worshippers performing the annual haj pilgrimage, Khamenei's website
said on Sunday.
"This issue will not be forgotten
and the nations will pursue it seriously. Instead of accusing this and
that, the Saudis should accept the responsibility and apologize to the
Muslims and the victims' families," Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was quoted as
saying.
"The Islamic World has a lot of questions,"
he said. Iranian officials have said they believe more than 1,000
pilgrims were killed in the disaster.
