A group of Christian prisoners, who are serving their terms in Tehran’s Evin Prison, have celebrated the birthday anniversary of Jesus Christ in a ceremony organized by the detention centre.
According to a Farsi report by the Mizan Online news agency, the Christmas celebration was held in Evin Prison’s amphitheatre.
Back in July, a judiciary official had declared that 136 foreign prisoners from 27 countries are serving their prison terms in Evin, mostly on drug charges.
Here are Mizan’s photos of the Christmas celebration:
