Iran asks British government to start dialogue with protesters
Iran has called on the British police to exercise restraint against people who it says are protesting at the killing of a black man in London.
Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast urged the British government to order the police to stop their violent confrontation with the people, IRNA reported in the early hours of Tuesday.
Mehmanparast asked the British government to start dialogue with the protesters and to listen to their demands in order to calm the situation down.
The Iranian official also asked independent human rights organizations to investigate the killing in order to protect civil rights and civil liberties.
The unrest began on Saturday when a few hundred people gathered outside a police station in Tottenham to protest against the fatal shooting of Mark Duggan on Thursday.
The protesters also set a bus and buildings on fire on Tottenham High Road and broke many shop windows.
Turmoil is now threatening to sweep across all of Britain as unfolding mayhem and looting has raged in the central city of Birmingham, the western city of Bristol, the northwestern city of Liverpool, and south London neighbourhood of Brixton.
Police said they have arrested more than 200 people since the unrest began.
