Iran Denies Secret Nuclear Facility    09/10 05:58

   Iran is denying an opposition group's claim that it is building a secret 
nuclear facility west of the capital.

   TEHRAN, Iran (AP) -- Iran is denying an opposition group's claim that it is 
building a secret nuclear facility west of the capital.

   The head of Iran's nuclear agency, Ali Akbar Salehi, said the country has no 
undeclared nuclear sites, according to a report Friday by the semiofficial Mehr 
news agency.

   On Thursday, an Iranian opposition group claimed to have discovered a new 
uranium enrichment plant being built about 75 miles (120 kilometers) west of 
Tehran and said it was 85 percent complete.

   A U.S. government official also disputed the claim by the People's 
Mujahedeen Organization of Iran, saying the site did not appear to have a 
nuclear role. The official said the U.S. has known about the facility for years 
but has no reason to think it is nuclear.
