He said that one of the inmates attempted to kill him with a knife but failed as the other prisoners intervened.

According to the attorney, following the incident Reza was relocated but no clue has been given as to his whereabouts.

“Somebody has attempted to murder him just 15 days before stands trial. He’s been threatened with murder and forced to give directed testimony,” he said.
