Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declined Sunday to guarantee the safety of his defeated rival Mir Hossein Moussavi in response to a question from CNN Chief International Correspondent Christiane Amanpour.

There were conflicting reports on whether Moussavi had been placed under house arrest.

Some reports indicated that he had been detained. Others said he was at home, conducting meetings but was free to come and go.

He might be arrested, the government may have given him a 'free guard' to 'protect' him, or he might just be keeping a low profile. I'm leaning towards the first, this rumor has been floated long enough that he would have said something publicly if it wasn't true to some degree.

The BBC said Sunday that the satellites it uses to broadcast in Persian were being jammed from Iran, disrupting its reports on the hotly-disputed presidential election.

The corporation said television and radio services had been affected from 1245 GMT Friday onwards by "heavy electronic jamming" which had become "progressively worse".

News agencies not supporting the government's view are being thrown out, shut down or blocked. BBC is just important enough the government won't do anything overt, but they are taking deniable actions, up to trying to jam BBC satellite communications.

This looks like trying to impose a media blackout before sending in the forces to suppress the opposition.
