<p>The leader of a long-outlawed Tunisian Islamist party has said critics should not compare him to the father of Iran&#8217;s Islamic Revolution and should accept that his views are more moderate.</p>
<p>Rachid Ghanouchi said &#8220;some Western media portray me like (Ayatollah Ruhollah) Khomeini, but that&#8217;s not me&#8221;.</p>
<p>Mr Ghanouchi made the comments in his first interview on returning to his North African country after more than two decades in exile in Britain.</p>
<p>He said his political movement, Ennahdha, wants to reinforce women&#8217;s rights.</p>
<p>Mr Ghanouchi was able to return home two weeks after autocratic President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali was forced from power by violent protests.</p>
<p>Mr Ben Ali&#8217;s ban on Mr Ghanouchi&#8217;s party has not officially been lifted, but the new interim government has been tolerant of it.</p>
<p>The comments came after it emerged that a money laundering investigation has been launched into accounts belonging to ousted Mr Ben Ali and his family.</p>
<p>Switzerland&#8217;s Federal Prosecutors Office said the accounts blocked two weeks ago contain tens of millions of Swiss francs.</p>
<p>Prosecutors office spokeswoman Walburga Bur said the probe may take time as some of the cases were complicated.</p>
<p>Zurich weekly NZZ am Sonntag reported that Swiss authorities were alerted about the money laundering allegations by financial institutions.</p>
