Iranian security forces have clashed with crowds of opposition supporters in the city of Isfahan, according to reports on an opposition website.
Activists said police had used tear gas and batons to disperse people gathering to commemorate Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri, who died at the weekend.
The ayatollah was one of the country's most influential dissident figures. On Monday, tens of thousands attended his funeral in the holy city of Qom many shouting anti-government slogans.
