The death of this Iranian Ayatollah won’t make life any better for two Azeri journalists.
Iranian Grand Ayatollah Mohammad Fazel Lankarani died June 16 in London. The senior cleric issued a fatwa in November 2006 calling for the deaths of Samir Sadagatoglu and Rafiq Tagi, which is on Lankarani’s Web site in Q&A form.
Unfortunately, his death does not lift the fatwa.
Free Azeri Journalists has the story.
