Iran's Supreme Leader pardons 'tens of thousands' of detainees
Summary by NewsWall Apr 16 23
- According to the state news agency IRNA, anyone accused of "corruption on earth" - a capital charge leveled against certain protestors, four of whom have been executed - will not be pardoned either.
- According to the HRANA activist news agency, around 20,000 people have been jailed in connection with the protests, which the authorities blame on Iran's foreign adversaries.
- Since the hangings began, protests have slowed significantly.
- "Naturally, those who do not express regret for their activities and give a written commitment for not repeating those activities, will not be pardoned," deputy judicial chief Sadeq Rahimi warned, according to state media.
