Former Iranian prosecutor suspended over prison deaths | RFI
An Iranian former prosecutor Saeed Mortazavi and two judges have been suspended over the prison deaths of three anti-government protesters, Iranian newspapers reported on Monday.

Mortazavi and two unnamed judges have been suspended over the deaths of Mohammad Kamrani, Amir Javadifar and Mohsen Ruholamini in Kahrizak jail, Iranian MPs said in a statement.

"The suspension of the former prosecutor and two judges accused in the case is comforting," 216 lawmakers said in a joint statement published in the Shargh newspaper.
