18 January 2011 :

The Iranian judiciary said there have been no changes in the case of Sakineh Mohammadi-Ashtiani and denied that her death sentence was suspended, official news agency IRNA reported.
In a letter from parliament's human rights committee head Zohreh Elahian to Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, reported earlier Monday by ISNA news agency, she said that because of a plea by Ashtiani's two children, the death sentence had been suspended.
Prosecutor general Gholam-Hossein Mohsen-Ejehi, however, denied Elahian's claims and said there have been no changes in the case of Ashtiani who is jailed in Tabriz, the capital of Azerbaijan province in northwestern Iran.
Malek Ejdar-Sharifi, the head of the judiciary office of Azerbaijan, also said the lawmaker's claim was false.
Ashtiani, 43, was originally found guilty of adultery in 2006 and sentenced to death by stoning, in line with Islamic laws, by a court in Azerbaijan.
After a storm of international protests, Iran tried to play down the stoning sentence by saying that the main charge against the woman was her role in helping her lover kill her husband.
According to the judiciary in Azerbaijan, her file was going through the revision process and a final verdict would be handed down after approval by the judiciary headquarters in Tehran.
