Geneva -- Iran has postponed a United Nations human-rights team's visit, the office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights said yesterday, days after Canada withdrew its ambassador to Tehran in the wake of the trial of an intelligence official accused of killing journalist Zahra Kazemi.
A spokesman said Iran indicated that the visit, planned for next week, could be pushed back to as late as October. There was no immediate comment from the Iranian mission in Geneva, but diplomatic sources said the Tehran judiciary has not been able to co-ordinate its officials for the meetings
