Tehran, Iran, Nov. 14 - Hard-line Iranian students will demonstrate on Tuesday outside the Italian embassy in Tehran, according to a report on the state-owned Fars news agency.
The report said that the protestors would denounce Rome's refusal to follow up an investigation into the death of Edoardo Agnelli, the son of the Fiat automobile giant owner. He was believed to have committed suicide on November 15, 2000 by jumping off a bridge in Turin.
Tehran blames his death on "Zionists" who it claims control Rome's political decisions.
Earlier this month, Iran hastily organised a demonstration outside the Italian embassy in Tehran on the same day that top Italian lawmakers from both government and opposition parties lined up outside the Iranian embassy in Rome to condemn "incendiary" remarks by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who had said that "Israel must be wiped off the map".
Several hundred hard-liners took part in the demonstration, which was organised by the para-military Bassij movement, an off-shoot of the Revolutionary Guards. They chanted slogans and lifted banners condemning the state of Israel and Italy's support for the Jewish state.
Iran's Foreign Ministry summoned Italy's ambassador Roberto Toscano to protest the Italian initiative against Ahmadinejad's threats as well as comments by Italian Foreign Minister Gianfranco Fini, who told reporters that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) should refer Iran's nuclear dossier to the United Nations Security Council.
According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
