NCRI, 14 Oct 2013 – As the Iranian regime’s authorities in the central prison in the city of Ilam were preparing to hang a prisoner on Monday a grenade was thrown at the prison gate to prevent the execution, State-run Fars News Agency reported.
According to the report the State Security Forces arrested those involved in the attack.
Since a few month ago members of families of prisoners on death row have occasionally gathered outside prisons to protest execution.
