US denies link to violence inside Iran

The United States Wednesday denied any involvement with violent acts inside Iran, a veiled reference to charges by Iran that the US was behind a bombing attack, DPA reported.

"I want to categorically deny any United States involvement in any kind of act of violence inside Iran," US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said.

An Iranian scientist described by the Iranian Atomic Organization as "one of the servants of the nuclear industry" died in the bombing attack on his car. The scientist, Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, was killed and his driver died in hospital, Fars news agency reported.

Clinton volunteered the denial in remarks to reporters, but did not specify that she was referring to the attack. Iran earlier charged that the US and Israel were behind the bombing.
