In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
His Eminence Hujjat al-Islam Haj Sayyid Muhammad Mousawi Khou'ini- may his graces last,
With greetings! Your report about the condition of non-convicted persons in the prisons is disappointing and touching. Messrs. Hujjat al-Islams Mousawi Ardebili «1» and Muqtada'i «2» and you- each in his respective area of responsibility, should choose individual prisoners to put an end to such unpleasant condition. You should solve this problem as soon as possible.
On my behalf, tell all the workers in the judicial affairs of Tehran and municipalities that God would not be pleased if non-convicted persons remain in prisons unduly, and if the gentlemen fail to sensitivity to this matter. I beseech God, the Exalted, to grant success to you and all those who are working hard in the judiciary. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
