daily press.com / Reuters/Stephanie Nebehay24-Feb-2011 (2 comments)
GENEVA (Reuters) - The United States is quietly lobbying to establish a United Nations special investigator on human rights abuses in Iran, for the first time in a decade, diplomats and activists said Thursday.
The U.S. delegation to the U.N. Human Rights Council has sought support from countries in all regions for a draft resolution that would put Iran's government back in the international limelight for alleged violations, they added.
