Tehran, Oct 9, IRNA � Substitute Friday prayers leader of Tehran Hojjatoleslam Kazem Sediqi on Friday called for formation of a fact-finding committee to follow up the September 24 Hajj tragedy.

Delivering his second Friday prayers sermon, Hojjatoleslam Sediqi said blockade of the roads to the site of `Satan Stonning� and Saudis� behavior towards survivors of the catastrophe all prove the incident was intentional.
He said so, a fact-finding committee should follow up the case.
He added that by insulting, the Saudis� denied human value , underestimating Hajj and Hajj pilgrims.
The deadly stampede took place on September 24 in Mina, also known as the Tent City, situated 5 kilometers to the east of the Holy city of Mecca.

The death toll from the overcrowding has been revised several times, ranging from 1,000 to 4,700.
