Gunman assassinates two prominent judges in Iran
A MAN fatally shot two prominent hard-line judges in Iran’s capital on Saturday, officials said.
No group immediately claimed responsibility for the shootings of the judges, clerics Mohammad Mogheiseh and Ali Razini, who both served on Iran’s Supreme Court.
A bodyguard for one of the judges was also wounded in the attack at the Palace of Justice in Tehran, which also serves as the headquarters of the country’s judiciary and typically has tight security.
