Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi has expressed condolences over Wednesday's deadly train crash in Spain.



In a telephone conversation with Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Garcia-Margallo on Thursday, Salehi expressed sympathy with the families of the crash victims on behalf of the Iranian nation and government.

At least 80 passengers were killed and more than 160 others injured on Wednesday, when a train derailed near the northwestern Spanish city of Santiago de Compostela.

The train was transporting 218 passengers and four crewmembers from Madrid to the shipbuilding city of Ferrol, when four of its carriages overturned and wagons piled into each other and folded up.

On Thursday, the Galicia region Supreme Court said in a statement that Francisco Jose Garzon, 52, was under investigation as a suspect in the accident, adding that the judge investigating the accident had ordered police to take a statement from him.

Official sources said the accident was caused by excessive speed.

On Thursday, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Seyyed Abbas Araqchi offered his condolences to the Spanish government and people over the rail disaster, saying, “Such heartrending accidents in any part of the world are the cause of sadness and sorrow.”
