Iran Focus, 7 Jan. – Friday prayer leader of the northwestern town of Marivan has gone to Tehran to prevent the prosecutor general and the judiciary from hanging two political dissidents, Loqman and Zaniar Moradi, according to their family, which requested anonymity fearing regime reprisals.
The cleric has told officials in the capital that the two were not responsible for the murder of his son for which the authorities have falsely charged them to justify their execution.
