Mino Hemati:  Mr. Khoramshahi, hello.  With respect to Amir-Hussain's withdrawal of his objection to his sentence, I want to know what impact this has on Delara.

Abdolsamad Khoramshahi:  It doesn't have any impact on Delara.  However, it sheds light on my argument that he was the murderer, and to escape the punishment of execution, he is willing to stay in prison without any objections for 10 years.  His crime of murder was apparent, but he came and accepted the punishment [that he has been give] in order to avoid the punishment of execution. 

MH:  I want to know whether this has any impact on your request to re-examine the case.  Is that possible?

AK:  No, no.  This has no impact.  They have set that aside.  But this is for public opinion.  A person who claimed he had committed no wrong, a person whose attorney claimed had no role [in the murder of Mahin], how could he now come and accept his sentence?  Do you understand?

MH:  Yes.  Is this to Delara's benefit?

AK:  Yes.  This, in public opinion, in public's perception, is representative of our contentions and Delara's claims.  His attorney used to say he had no role whatsoever [in Mahin's murder].  If he didn't have any role whatsoever, how is it that he now comes and accepts his sentence and is willing to be in prison for 10 years?!  Why did he go back and withdraw his objection?

MH:  And when did they withdraw their objection? 

AK:   Approximately 1 month ago. 

MH:  From one month ago, the news has now come out?  Meaning that they have now announced it?

AK:  Yes, but now the order has been issued and that has been sent to me. 

MH:  Now what does this do? 

AK:  This has an impact on public opinion.  Why would a person who claimed he had done no wrong take back his objection?  This shows that he is the murderer.  This is for our conscience, for your views, as this issue has truly been clarified.  But from the larger perspective, no, [this has no impact on Delara's case] because Amir-Hussain's case is no longer before Mr. Shahroudi. 

MH:  Oh, Amir-Hussain's case is not before Shahroudi.  Is it?

AK:  No, because he withdrew his objection and stated that he is willing to endure prison and that sort of thing. 

MH:  So what happens to Delara?

AK:  Nothing.  The case is now in Mr. Shahroudi's office and they must examine it and see what will happen. 

MH:  So from a public opinion stand point, this is a positive thing for your argument and for your proof.

AK:  Yes.
