A senior Iranian lawmaker says the country’s Majlis will take up and follow the issue of the recent execution of a group of Iranian nationals in Saudi Arabia, Press TV reports.
Deputy Head of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee Esmail Kowsari said on Thursday that Saudi officials should have provided the Iranian inmates with access to a defense attorney, and allowed them to try to defend themselves.
He added that Saudi Arabia's recent execution of the Iranian prisoners is indicative of the kingdom’s revulsion and hatred towards Iran, suggesting that the Iranian Foreign Ministry file a lawsuit against Saudi authorities over the case.
