A British woman has reportedly been sentenced to 20 years in
a hellhole Iranian prison for posting comments on Facebook allegedly
criticising the country’s leadership.
Roya Nobakht, 47, from Stockport, Greater Manchester, was
arrested last October when she was visiting the south-western city of Shiraz.
She was accused of gathering crowds, putting national
security at risk and insulting Islam after criticising former Iranian supreme
leader the Ayatollah Khomeini on the social media site.
