The top judiciary official also hailed the expansion that has taken place in relations between Iran and Qatar in the past three years, adding that Tehran seeks to further deepen its ties with the Persian Gulf country.

The Emir of Qatar, for his part, renewed his condolences on the death last month of Iranian president Ebrahim Raeisi and his companions in a tragic helicopter crash, and said the late president had played a major role in efforts aimed at deepening relations between Iran and Qatar.

Sheikh Tamim expressed hope that relations would further expand under the next administrative government in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

He also highlighted the significance of judicial and legal agreements that are planned to be signed between Iran and Qatar during Eje’i’s visit to Doha, adding that his country is ready to cooperate with Iran on the repatriation of some prisoners to the country.
