Iran announced over the weekend that it would not allow international organizations, attorneys or even family members to visit a woman condemned to be stoned to death. The woman's two sons were denied entry to her prison last Thursday, and guards denied that they had attempted to visit when she questioned them.

A protest was held in Jaffa on Saturday night, part of 100 cities that took part in an International Day of Protest against Stoning. The Iranian government has tried to keep the case under wraps, because of the international outrage against the stoning sentence.
