He was referring to Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, reformists held incommunicado since February 2011, after they urged massive street protests following the election. Thousands of protesters, reformists and journalists were arrested after demonstrations that became k**wn as Iran's green movement.
