Following last month’s order of Iran’s head of judiciary, Ayatollah Shahrudi, to have the case of Reza Alinejad resolved through the mediation council, the family of the victim demanded 2 billion Rials (more than $200,000) blood money retribution. Alinejad’s family not being able to afford such demand, the file was sent back to office of Ayatollah Shahrudi for final approval of the execution decree. Meanwhile Mohammad Mostafaei, Reza’s attorney, told ISNA (Iranian Student News Agency) that Iran’s supreme court has agreed to review the case based on the evidences presented by Mostafaei.
