The infamous Judge Abolqasem Salavati, who has been nicknamed Iran’s “hanging judge,” sentenced a 25-year-old Iranian woman to 10 years in prison for “encouraging prostitution” because she took off her mandatory headscarf at an anti-regime protest.
Voice of America tweeted in Persian about Mahsa Peyravi’s sentence on Sunday.
The American governmental news organization wrote on Twitter that the Tehran Revolutionary Court sentenced Peyravi for taking off her headscarf in October during a protest on Mirdamad Boulevard in Tehran. She twirled her hijab in an oft-repeated act of defiance against the clerical men who rule the theocratic state.
The Tehran court found her guilty of “encouraging corruption and prostitution” for her rejection of the obligatory Islamic dress code. She was also convicted of “assembly and collusion.” Human rights organizations have long argued that the Islamic Republic of Iran’s opaque judicial system fails to meet the rudimentary norms of a modern legal system.
‘End of Iranian dictatorship is near’
Hamid Charkhkar, an Iranian-American academic, told The Jerusalem Post, “These cruel and inhumane treatments of Iranians by the Islamic regime in Iran shows the end for [Ali] Khamenei’s dictatorship is near. The youth in Iran will no longer tolerate Sharia laws, and they are done with medieval Mullahs controlling their lives. Over the last 100 days, Iranians have fought this regime every day, and now, for the first time in 43 years since the emergence of Islamic fascism in Iran, most people can see a future without the Islamic Republic.”
Iranians launched a nationwide series of protests against Khamenei regime’s after the nation’s notorious morality police killed Mahsa Amini in prison in September for failing to properly wear her hijab. The highly repressive Islamic nation has been gripped with demonstrations since Amini’s murder.
Charkhkar, a member of the Alliance Against Islamic Regime of Iran Apologists, added, “Although Khamenei and his thugs use scare tactics such as executions, torture and long-term prison sentences to silence people, this revolution will continue till the day Iranians are rid of these monsters.”…
