Ramin Safarnia, an attorney, wrote on the social network X, formerly Twitter, on Friday, May 4th, that according to the report from Razi Hospital in Tehran sent to Ghezel Hesar Prison, his client’s illnesses are evident.
Mr. Safarnia stated that the prison doctor told his client that with this report, he qualifies for non-custodial punishment.
