TEHRAN (MNA) -- Government spokesman Abdullah Ramezanzadeh said on Monday that Iran will not allow any country to interfere in the trial on the death of Zahra Kazemi.
“The trial is being held in the Islamic Republic of Iran and is about a tragic event which happened to an Iranian national. We will not allow any foreign country to interfere in the proceedings and there is no need for foreign observers,” Ramezanzadeh told reporters at his weekly press briefing.
“International law only recognizes the jurisdiction of the Iranian court to hear the case, and no other court is authorized to handle the case,” he added.
