Iran Sentences Student to Death in Blasphemy Case
Iran has sentenced Najmeh Amini, 23, an accounting student held in Vakilabad Prison in Mashhad, to death for sab ol-nabi, the charge of insulting the Prophet Muhammad, over a social-media post. Amini says she posted while hallucinating on psychedelic mushrooms. The ruling can be appealed to Iran's supreme court.
