TEHRAN, June 20 (Reuters) - A protest rally against a disputed presidential election will go ahead on Saturday, an aide of defeated candidate Mehdi Karoubi said, a day after Iran's top authority demanded an end to such street protests.

"The demonstration plan has not been cancelled and accordingly it must be held this afternoon," said the Karoubi aide, who declined to be named. (Editing by Louise Ireland)
