Mass funerals for victims of Iran mosque bombings

Thousands of mourners have thronged the streets of the south-eastern Iranian city of Zahedan as mass funerals were held for victims of the devastating bombings of a mosque.
Police said they had arrested 40 people in connection with Thursday's blasts, which killed at least 27 people.
Those detained were not accused of direct responsibility for the attacks.
Hundreds of worshippers were injured when two suicide bombers blew themselves up at a Shia mosque.
The first bomber blew himself up at a checkpoint outside the Jamia mosque in Zahedan, with a more deadly second blast moments later.
