DUBAI - Iran's Foreign Ministry has declared Bahrain's second-ranking diplomat in Tehran persona non grata and given him 72 hours to leave the country, the semi-official Fars news agency reported on Friday. 'According to a Foreign Ministry statement, Tehran has given Bassan al-Dosari 72 hours to leave Iran,' Fars said. Bahrain expelled the equivalent Iranian diplomat on Thursday as part of a growing diplomatic spat.
