July 30th marked the fortieth day since Neda Soltan was shot while attending a legal public protest in Tehran, Iran. In Shia Islam the mourning period for a lost loved one ends and culminates on the fortieth day – the “Celleh”. With respect for the murdered girl and adherence to their religious beliefs, thousands of Iranians went to her grave and to the Grand Mosala prayer complex to pay their respects.
The hoodlums that support the Iranian police-state – operating under a shredding banner of an “Islamic Republic” – contravened the consititution of the country and the beliefs of Islam by attacking the mourners with tear gas, bats and guns.
