Globe and Mail Update

POSTED AT 2:42 AM EDT Wednesday, Jul. 23, 2003

Montreal photojournalist Zahra Kazemi was buried in Iran Wednesday morning, the Agence-France Presse is reporting.

AFP cites the Iranian state news agency, IRNA, as the source of the information. The burial took place in the southwestern city of Shiraz.

The news comes two weeks after Ms. Kazemi's death, which followed her arrest for taking pictures of family members of political prisoners in Tehran.

Iranian officials have since admitted that Ms. Kazemi was beaten and died from an injury to her skull.
