Upcoming Iranian elections

Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr reports from Tehran as the country prepares to go to the polls for parliamentary elections.



Iranians will go to the polls on Friday for the first time since President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was re-elected in 2009. Thousands of people protested the result, sparking months of unrest in the Islamic Republic.



Iranians go to the polls this Friday, but with a major government crackdown on dissent and an opposition boycott will these elections be free and fair?
