Iran Press/ Iran news: Kazem Gharibabadi, secretary of Iran’s High Council for Human Rights and deputy head of the Iranian Judiciary, told the ISNA that an indictment had earlier been issued in the case and the trial process would start soon.
He said three judges had been named to supervise the legal case, and they would begin their task soon.
Earlier this year, Gharibabadi said 94 Americans face accusations in the case, including former US President Donald Trump, who ordered the assassination.
In May, Tehran’s prosecutor general issued a guilty plea for over 70 people, including Trump, his Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and General Frank Mckenzie, former commander of the United States Central Command, in connection with the assassination of General Soleimani in 2020.
Iran and Iraq have also set up a joint judicial committee to investigate the case.
General Soleimani was assassinated in a US drone attack in Baghdad International Airport on January 3, 2020.
