Council spokesman Abbas-Ali Kadkhodayi
The Guardian Council, the body tasked with supervising the electoral process, says it will announce its verdict on the results of Iran's presidential elections within 10 days.
Council spokesman Abbas-Ali Kadkhodayi said the body had received two official complaints from defeated presidential candidates Mir-Hossein Moussavi and Mohsen Rezaie.
The two candidates have questioned the legitimacy of the June 12 poll.
Kadkhodayi said the Council would review the appeals and announce its final verdict within 10 days.
In order for the outcome of the election to stand, the Guardian Council must approve the results.
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has urged Moussavi to legally pursue his appeal against Friday's vote result.
The Leader said he had called on the Guardian Council to carefully review the appeal of the former prime minister.
