Former Iranian ministers, vice presidents, and politicians have gone on trial in Tehran.
They are among about 100 people facing charges for alleged crimes against Iran's national security in the aftermath of protests that followed June's disputed presidential election.
The country's Revolutionary Court is to decide their guilt or innocence.
Al Jazeera's Tarek Bazely reports on the opening day of a trial in which the defendants are accused of having plotted post-election unrest for more than a year.

CHEN:
Iranians went to the polls on Saturday for parliamentary elections. Based on partial results, the Conservatives, who support President Ahmadinejad, are expected to keep control of the assembly. But the Reformists, who oppose Ahmadinejad, did better than expected. Here's the story:
STORY:
Many Reformist candidates were barred from running in the parliamentary elections. But the Reformists still won 30 percent of the seats.
[Abdollah Naseri, Pro-Reformist Spokesman]:
"Seventy percent of the eighth Parliamentary candidates were chosen from before and yet we managed to get 30 percent of the seats."
The AFP reported that the EU criticized the Iranian general elections as quote 'neither fair nor free.'
But despite the controversy, the Reformists are more determined than ever to take part in Parliament, in the hope of bringing change to the Islamic Republic. And Naseri added that the Reformists were also determined not to resign.
[Abdollah Naseri, Pro-Reformist Spokesman]:
"At this stage none of our candidates are willing to resign even if they are confronted with the most impossible obstacles, with the knowledge that their rights have been taken away from them and they will participate in Parliament."
Reformists held about 40 seats in the outgoing parliament, but the new assembly also has a large group of independents. And that may play well for the Reformists, if they can build support for a move to oppose Ahmadinejad.

As more votes are counted, it's becoming clear that reformists will be taking over Iran's parliament.
With two-thirds of the votes counted, state media report reformists have a commanding lead over the hard-liners who have dominated the government for 21 years.
A head-count taken by the Associated Press indicates reformists won 72 percent of the races in which the results were known.
Meanwhile, two popular reformists, jailed by hard-liners for religious dissent, have been released on leave.
Former Iranian interior minister Abdollah Nouri was one of two popular reformists allowed to go home on leave after being jailed by hard-liners for religious dissent.
Nouri, whose leave lasts until Wednesday, seemed relaxed and in good spirits at his home in northern Tehran on Sunday.
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"The people, since the 23rd of May 1997, understand that they are the decision-makers in this country. We believe and still believe that the people's participation can actually make a difference. The people confirmed that during the presidential elections and reconfirmed it."
SUPER CAPTION: Abdullah Nouri, Former Iranian interior minister
Another reformist, Mohsen Kadivar, was freed on Saturday on one-week leave.
The apparent win for reformers in the Iranian elections is a blow to the hard-liners who have led the country since the overthrow of the shah in 1979.
The reform movement elected a moderate Muslim cleric, Mohammad Khatami (HAHT'-ah-mee), to the presidency in 1997.
And Khatami's spokesman said that with an election victory for the reformists, reform would take place faster and sooner.
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"I think the results are clear and definite that the reformists are going to win, so I don't think anything else is going to happen. This project was done with the election of President Khatami and when the parliament and government have the same goal and direction, reform can take place faster and sooner."
SUPER CAPTION: Mohammed Ali Abtahi, Iranian President Khatami's spokesman
Many Iranians have begun ignoring hard-line restrictions on dress, dating, music and satellite dishes.
And voters yearning for more social and political freedoms appear to have given reformers a commanding lead in the parliamentary elections.
Results were out for 172 of the 290 parliamentary seats, and reformist candidates had an overwhelming lead, state media reported.
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"Khatami's people are good and their group is better than before. I believe in them and I accept them."
SUPER CAPTION: Ali Abbassi, Voxpop
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"I agree that younger people are pro-Khatami."
SUPER CAPTION: Sumaya Bahrani, Voxpop
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"Mr Khatami has done good projects and the people have voted for Khatami's sake."
SUPER CAPTION: Malek Nassi, Voxpop
With 22 (m) million votes counted from 32 (m) million cast, the Islamic Republic News Agency said 67 percent of the winners were reformists, 25 per cent were conservatives and the rest independents.
It didn't give a numerical breakdown.
Attention is now focused on Tehran, a prestigious constituency where several high-profile candidates are running.
The first results from the capital, which has 30 seats in Majlis - or parliament - could be known later on Sunday.
The Interior Ministry, which is in charge of the elections, will only announce the final results when they become known later this week.
Elections are not run on party lines and winners are only listed by name, making it difficult to pinpoint affiliations of lesser-known candidates.
The new Iranian parliament will convene in June.

CHEN:
Iranians went to the polls on Saturday for parliamentary elections. Based on partial results, the Conservatives, who support President Ahmadinejad, are expected to keep control of the assembly. But the Reformists, who oppose Ahmadinejad, did better than expected. Here's the story:
STORY:
Many Reformist candidates were barred from running in the parliamentary elections. But the Reformists still won 30 percent of the seats.
[Abdollah Naseri, Pro-Reformist Spokesman]:
"Seventy percent of the eighth Parliamentary candidates were chosen from before and yet we managed to get 30 percent of the seats."
The AFP reported that the EU criticized the Iranian general elections as quote 'neither fair nor free.'
But despite the controversy, the Reformists are more determined than ever to take part in Parliament, in the hope of bringing change to the Islamic Republic. And Naseri added that the Reformists were also determined not to resign.
[Abdollah Naseri, Pro-Reformist Spokesman]:
"At this stage none of our candidates are willing to resign even if they are confronted with the most impossible obstacles, with the knowledge that their rights have been taken away from them and they will participate in Parliament."
Reformists held about 40 seats in the outgoing parliament, but the new assembly also has a large group of independents. And that may play well for the Reformists, if they can build support for a move to oppose Ahmadinejad.

Farsi/Nat
As more votes are counted, it's becoming clear that reformists will be taking over Iran's parliament.
With two-thirds of the votes counted, state media report reformists have a commanding lead over the hard-liners who have dominated the government for 21 years.
A head-count taken by the Associated Press indicates reformists won 72 percent of the races in which the results were known.
Meanwhile, two popular reformists, jailed by hard-liners for religious dissent, have been released on leave.
Former Iranian interior minister Abdollah Nouri was one of two popular reformists allowed to go home on leave after being jailed by hard-liners for religious dissent.
Nouri, whose leave lasts until Wednesday, seemed relaxed and in good spirits at his home in northern Tehran on Sunday.
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"The people, since the 23rd of May 1997, understand that they are the decision-makers in this country. We believe and still believe that the people's participation can actually make a difference. The people confirmed that during the presidential elections and reconfirmed it."
SUPER CAPTION: Abdullah Nouri, Former Iranian interior minister
Another reformist, Mohsen Kadivar, was freed on Saturday on one-week leave.
The apparent win for reformers in the Iranian elections is a blow to the hard-liners who have led the country since the overthrow of the shah in 1979.
The reform movement elected a moderate Muslim cleric, Mohammad Khatami (HAHT'-ah-mee), to the presidency in 1997.
And Khatami's spokesman said that with an election victory for the reformists, reform would take place faster and sooner.
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"I think the results are clear and definite that the reformists are going to win, so I don't think anything else is going to happen. This project was done with the election of President Khatami and when the parliament and government have the same goal and direction, reform can take place faster and sooner."
SUPER CAPTION: Mohammed Ali Abtahi, Iranian President Khatami's spokesman
Many Iranians have begun ignoring hard-line restrictions on dress, dating, music and satellite dishes.
And voters yearning for more social and political freedoms appear to have given reformers a commanding lead in the parliamentary elections.
Results were out for 172 of the 290 parliamentary seats, and reformist candidates had an overwhelming lead, state media reported.
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"Khatami's people are good and their group is better than before. I believe in them and I accept them."
SUPER CAPTION: Ali Abbassi, Voxpop
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"I agree that younger people are pro-Khatami."
SUPER CAPTION: Sumaya Bahrani, Voxpop
SOUNDBITE: (Farsi)
"Mr Khatami has done good projects and the people have voted for Khatami's sake."
SUPER CAPTION: Malek Nassi, Voxpop
With 22 (m) million votes counted from 32 (m) million cast, the Islamic Republic News Agency said 67 percent of the winners were reformists, 25 per cent were conservatives and the rest independents.
It didn't give a numerical breakdown.
Attention is now focused on Tehran, a prestigious constituency where several high-profile candidates are running.
The first results from the capital, which has 30 seats in Majlis - or parliament - could be known later on Sunday.
The Interior Ministry, which is in charge of the elections, will only announce the final results when they become known later this week.
Elections are not run on party lines and winners are only listed by name, making it difficult to pinpoint affiliations of lesser-known candidates.
The new Iranian parliament will convene in June.

Reformists takes all parliamentary seats in Tehran
Iran has taken one more step towards becoming a “reformed” country in the first elections since it signed a nuclear deal with six world powers.
Often described as a pragmatist, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani’s effort to change long-sanctioned Iran’s fate finally blossomed,
Fresh votes could mark whole new fate
All these steps might be more crucial for Iran than they seem. If 79-year old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dies in the next 8 years, the Assembly of Experts would end up electing a new Supreme Leader, Even Khamenei himself has actually hinted that it is likely to happen, And the new top official of Iran could be more moderate, when it comes to engaging with the wider world and being willing to alter Iran’s hard-line politics, Just as President Rouhani, whose potential candidacy is already being discussed by analysts. Political analyst Bayram Sinkaya says he finds it unlikely that Rouhani would become Supreme Leader. He says that Rouhani would first have to be promoted to Ayatollah status in order to become Supreme Leader - although this happened before in the case of Khamenei.
Iranians hopeful
Some say, a moderate victory in the clerical assembly and parliament would not make Iran’s power structure any more democratic, Since it is still enmeshed in theocracy. But not everyone agrees that voting is useless, including Vice President of Iran. Many Iranians keep their faith in the influence of representatives they picked to be in the parliament and Assembly of Experts. They believe democracy could be effective within a theocratic state, and that their votes will make a difference.

If 79-year old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dies in the next 8 years, the Assembly of Experts would end up electing a new Supreme Leader, Even Khamenei himself has actually hinted that it is likely to happen, And the new top official of Iran could be more moderate, when it comes to engaging with the wider world and being willing to alter Iran’s hard-line politics, Just as President Rouhani, whose potential candidacy is already being discussed by analysts. Political analyst Bayram Sinkaya says he finds it unlikely that Rouhani would become Supreme Leader. He says that Rouhani would first have to be promoted to Ayatollah status in order to become Supreme Leader - although this happened before in the case of Khamenei.
Iranians hopeful
Some say, a moderate victory in the clerical assembly and parliament would not make Iran’s power structure any more democratic, Since it is still enmeshed in theocracy. But not everyone agrees that voting is useless, including Vice President of Iran. Many Iranians keep their faith in the influence of representatives they picked to be in the parliament and Assembly of Experts. They believe democracy could be effective within a theocratic state, and that their votes will make a difference.

On February 26, 2016 millions of Iranians went to the ballot boxes to elect their candidates for the country’s parliament and the Assembly of Experts. The timing of the elections was especially important. They came only months after the Rouhani government’s landmark deal with the Western superpowers that settled a long-running dispute over Iran’s nuclear program. The contest between the Principlists, Reformists and independent candidates vying for the seats in the country’s legislative body made it all more intense. Of the 12,123 individuals who had registered their names to run for parliament, only around 6,300 managed to win the approval of the powerful Guardian Council.

On February 26, 2016 millions of Iranians went to the ballot boxes to elect their candidates for the country’s parliament and the Assembly of Experts.
The timing of the elections was especially important. They came only months after the Rouhani government’s landmark deal with the Western superpowers that settled a long-running dispute over Iran’s nuclear program.
The contest between the Principlists, Reformists and independent candidates vying for the seats in the country’s legislative body made it all more intense. Of the 12,123 individuals who had registered their names to run for parliament, only around 6,300 managed to win the approval of the powerful Guardian Council. And of the 801 who put their names down for the Assembly of Experts election, 161 were qualified.
Statistics say of the around 55 million eligible voters, more than 32 million, that’s around 60 percent of them, turned out to cast their ballots. Since political parties per se don’t carry much weight in any elections in Iran, what they do is to draw up a list of their candidates and introduce their political stripes to the voters.
In Tehran, the Principlists and Reformists each came up with a list of 30 candidates. The reformist list won the majority of the votes in the capital city, denying the rival Principlists all the 30 seats allocated to the Tehran constituency but so far the mix shows something around 60% of seats having gone to Principlists already, 40% reformist and moderates and 20% independents.
Speculation is rife about who will take over as the next parliament speaker. The current speaker, Ali Larijani, has managed to keep his seat in parliament a runner-up from Qom. Although a Principlist, he didn’t appear on the Principlists’ list. On the other hand, Mohammadreza Aref, who’s on top of the reformist list, has mustered the biggest number of votes nationally and is said to be very likely to replace Larijani.
Simultaneously with the parliamentary poll was another one for electing members of the Assembly of Experts. Ayatollah Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani won the majority of the votes in Tehran while Ayatollah Mohammad Yazdi, the incumbent head of the assembly of experts, and Ayatollah Mesbah Yazdi, a prominent Principlist and a sitting member of the assembly, failed to garner enough votes to keep their positions.
