The assassination of two senior justices in the Iranian Supreme Court during a shooting attack in Tehran highlights the persistent dangers faced by judiciary officials in the country.
The armed assailant, who killed himself after the attack, appeared to have no previous connections to the court, raising questions about the motivations and planning behind the shooting.
Judiciary spokesperson Asghar Jahangir emphasized the judges' roles in tackling national security, espionage, and terrorism, underscoring the significance of their positions and the risks involved.
As investigations continue, the judiciary's media center noted that additional suspects linked to the attack may still be at large, indicating a broader threat to judicial safety.
