Former Iranian President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani has lost his post as chairman of the Assembly of Experts, the body that selects the supreme leader of Iran. Rafsanjani was elected on September 4, 2007 and has been forced to leave his important post after receiving widespread criticism from supporters of the 'hard line' of the Iranian regime for being too close to that of the reformist opposition.
Ayatollah Mohammad Reza Mahdavi Kani has been chosen in his place, after Rafsanayani withdraw his candidacy, according to the semiofficial Mehr news agency.
