( CNN ) -- A program on Iran 's government-backed Press TV recently took a woman convicted of adultery and murder back to her home in Osku `` to produce a visual account '' of the death of her husband `` at the crime scene . '' Press TV posted a story on its website early Friday morning explaining that the program `` Iran Today , '' which will air Friday night , would include interviews with -- among others -- Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani , who was sentenced to be stoned to death . Press TV 's release of still photographs of Ashtiani and her son from the interview , which took place on Sunday , fueled some speculation that they had been released , but there was no evidence or confirmation to support that conjecture . In a clip from the program that aired late Thursday , Ashtiani confesses to plotting to kill her husband . Her family , however , has denied she was involved in her husband 's death . Ashtiani was convicted of adultery in 2006 and sentenced to death by stoning . She became the subject of enormous international outcry over the summer when her sentence became public knowledge . Officials ranging from Pope Benedict XVI to the European Union 's top foreign policy official , Catherine Ashton , urged Iran not to carry out the sentence . Two German journalists who interviewed Ashtiani were arrested in October and charged with espionage . He son and lawyer also were arrested , but it was not clear on what charges . CNN 's Azadeh Ansari and Mitra Mobasherat contributed to this report .
