HR campaigners condemn Iranian TV
Human rights campaigners condemned an Iranian television programme, aired tonight, which showed Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, the woman sentenced to death by stoning, at her home apparently discussing her part in the murder of her husband.
Despite speculation that she had been released, Iran’s state news agency confirmed that Mohammadi Ashtiani remains in prison.
Her jailed son also appeared in the programme, in which he played the role of his father in a reconstruction.
Iran's state-run Press TV, said it had been arranged with Iran's judicial authorities to accompany his mother to her house to record her recounting the crime and that she had agreed to do so.
