Tehran, Jan 4, IRNA – Head of the Guardian Council Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati on Monday extended his condolences on martyrdom of Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr and said such crimes are perpetrated by ignorant individuals.
In a meeting with a group of Friday prayers leaders, Ayatollah Jannati regretted that Saudis martyred Sheikh Nimr after long years of imprisonment.
He said Sheikh Nimr martyrdom is a calamity and catastrophe for the Muslim World, Shia Muslims and people of Iran.
'Hope that God will take revenge on so much blood of the innocent shed in Saudi Arabia.'
He wished God Almighty for downfall of Saudi Wahabis and coming to power of a state that will deserve to be the host of the pilgrims to the House of God.
