The current Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Amoli Larijani was appointed as the chairman of the Iran’s Expediency Council back in December after the demise of previous chairman of the council. He has been holding two posts since then.
In response to a letter penned by sitting Judiciary chief Ayatollah Amoli Larijani which called on the Leader to introduce the new Judiciary Chief few months before his term finishes, Ayatollah Khamenei has responded by agreeing with his request.
In his letter, the Leader has expressed his appreciation to Ayatollah Amoli Larijani for efforts during the two terms at the top of the legal system of the country, wishing him more successes in his new post as the chairman of the Iran’s Expediency Council.
