The clerical body that will choose Iran's next supreme leader, succeeding the slain Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has more or less reached a majority consensus, Assembly of Experts member Ayatollah Mohammadmehdi Mirbaqeri said on Sunday.
The Mehr news agency quoted him as saying "some obstacles" still needed to be resolved regarding the process.
On Saturday, a senior cleric in the Assembly of Experts said its members would meet "within one day" to choose the leader.
Two members of the panel, Ayatollah Mohsen Heidari Alekasir and Ahmad Alamolhoda, said the assembly had chosen a successor, according to Iranian media.
Alamolhoda said the head of the assembly's secretariat, Ayatollah Hashem Hosseini Bushehri, is responsible for announcing the assembly’s decision.
