The Iranian Judiciary head Golamhossein Mohseni-Eje'i had penned a letter to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution earlier this year to ask for pardoning and commuting the sentences of 1542 convicts on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
The convicts had met the terms and conditions of a commission in the judiciary tasked with examining the pardoning and reduction in jail terms for prisoners.
Monday has been declared the first day of Eid Al-Fir in Iran, according to the calendar.
