Iran's state TV accuses BBC of hacking website
by Ruchi Shroff on Jul 8, 2012
Iran's state TV said that the BBC hacked its website to change the results of a poll about Iran's nuclear program. The BBC denied the allegation.
Western countries suspect Iran may be aiming to produce nuclear weapons. Iran insists its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, like energy production.
The British broadcaster's Farsi language service reported that the poll showed 63 percent of those who took part favored halting uranium enrichment in exchange for an end to Western economic sanctions.
The TV report said that the actual figure was 24 percent, and the rest favored retaliation against the West with measures like closing the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a key to exporting oil from the Gulf.
The poll was taken off Iran TV's website.
