AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The leader of the Islamic Revolution has donated one billion and 500 million tomans to help release needy prisoners.
Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei donated one billion and 500 million Iranian tomans to the Diyeh organization to secure the freedom of prisoners who cannot afford to pay their debts.
His Eminence made the donation on the occasion of the 36th donating Festival which is held by Iran’s Headquarters of Diyeh (compensation for bodily harm or better said blood money).
The donating Festival which is dubbed "Golrizan" in Persian is a nationwide event attended by people who would like to provide Diyeh or blood money to help needy inmates.
The event is held each year during the holy month of Ramadan in the presence of a group of officials and charitable people in Tehran and other Iranian cities.
