Iran's hard-line former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad registers for June 28 presidential election

Iran's hard-line former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has registered as a possible candidate for the presidential election, aiming to regain the country's top political position after a helicopter crash killed the nation's president.
