Kazem Mousavi, the representative of Ardabil, said: ‘To hell with it if Esra Panahi took pills and died.’
The representative of Ardabil in the Islamic Consultative Assembly, in a conversation with Iran Watch, commented on the cause of death of Esra Panahi, the Ardabil student who is said to have been killed by security forces, stating:
The story of the high school girl’s killing is entirely false. The situation is as follows: the girl’s father killed her fiancé two years ago and was sentenced to execution according to the law. About a month ago, the retribution sentence was carried out. The claims made by the Ministry of Education and some media about this girl are completely incorrect.
