Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has come under heavy criticism after a picture on Friday showed him embracing a woman at the funeral of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. While the identity of the woman who received Ahmadinejad’s apparent act of sympathy was at first unclear, the woman appeared to be Chavez’s mother Elena Frias. Conservative Iranians who supported the president during the Iranian presidential elections in 2008 attacked him for the gesture. Former MP Hojatoleslam Mohammed Taghi Rahbar, who supported Ahmadinjed during the previous presidential elections, said the president lost control at the funeral of Chavez.
