Iranian Court Sentences Singer and Her Crew to Flogging for Performing Without Head Covering

An Iranian court punished a singer and eight crew members—sound engineers, cameramen, and staff—with 74 lashes each for a YouTube concert where the singer performed without a head covering required by law. The court held everyone responsible for one person's choice, making it risky to work on any creative project. They also face travel bans and possible bans from their careers. The ruling can be appealed.
