The bodies of protesters - and some innocent victims - are being laid to rest in Behesht-e Zahra cemetery following the violence in Iran. Families have to mourn their losses in private; the government has not allowed memorial ceremonies to be held. Their bodies lie close to that of Neda Soltani, who was also buried in this cemetery.
