Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's top
aide has been indicted, apparently in connection with allegations of corruption in the previous administration, Iranian media reported on Monday. Former Vice President Mohammad-Reza Rahimi has been the target of a lengthy judicial investigation into his possible role in several high-profile bribery and embezzlement cases that also spill into Turkey, as well as Central and East Asia.
