Iranian legal scholars and lawyers have held a webinar to look into the legal aspects of following up on the assassination of General Qassem Soleimani, the former IRGC Quds Force Commander and also Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the nuclear scientist who was killed by terrorists near Tehran last month.
A statement was also issued by these high ranking experts at law. The deputy Iranian justice minister for human rights also stressed that the assassination of the two figures was against international law.
Some human rights officials from Iraq and Syria joined the webinar saying that they support every attempt to follow up on the assassination of Soleimani.
Earlier, Iran has vowed not to let the assassination of the two icons go unanswered. Now holding such events shows that the country is going to follow up on the cases through legal channels as well.
