Iran, Turkiye exchange six prisoners

Tehran, IRNA - Iran’s deputy justice minister for international affairs Askar Jalalian has announced that some 6 prisoners have been exchanged between Iran and Turkiye.

Referring to the recent meeting of Iran-Turkiye convicts transfer committee in Ankara, Jalalian said on Tuesday that six Iranian and Turkish prisoners have been extradited to their homes through the Bazargan border point in northwestern Iran.

Three Iranians and three Turkish convicts were extradited in the exchange, he underlined.

About 14 years ago, Tehran and Ankara signed an agreement on prisoner swaps.

Earlier, Jalalian at the head of a delegation to participate in a meeting on the transfer of prisoners, met with Enis Yavuz Yildirim, the head of the Turkiye’s Prisons and Detention Houses.
