Iranian conservative Haddad-Adel drops out of presidential election

Conservative former parliament speaker Gholam-Ali Haddad-Adel on Monday withdrew his candidacy from Iran's June 14 presidential election, the semi-official Mehr news agency said.

"With my withdrawal I ask the dear people to strictly observe the criteria of the Supreme Leader of the Revolution (Ayatollah Ali Khamenei) when they vote for candidates," he said in a statement carried by Mehr.
 
Earlier, Iran's Guardian Council said it was not considering barring any presidential candidate days before the June 14 vote, denying Iranian media reports that it was reviewing the candidacy of moderate cleric Hassan Rohani.             

"A further review of the qualifications of candidates has not been raised and we deny such a thing," Iran's state news agency IRNA quoted Guardian Council spokesman Abbas Ali Kadkhodai as saying.

Iran's semi-official Mehr news agency said on Sunday the Guardian Council would consider whether to disqualify Rohani.
