However, no statements were made to the effect that the sentence of the Mykonos trial in Berlin was wrong, and therefore that it was unfounded to accuse the Iranian government of state terrorism. Rallies against Germany took place in Teheran and other Iranian cities. Protesters threw stones and tomatoes at the German embassy in Teheran. Two of the estimated 2000 protesters tried to climb over an additional barricade constructed by the security forces in front of the embassy, but were beaten down by policemen.
