Iranian Singer Amir Tataloo Reportedly Sentenced to Death for Blasphemy; Officials Deny Verdict
Jan 19, 2025, 06:01 PM
Iranian singer Amirhossein Maghsoudloo, known as Amir Tataloo, has reportedly been sentenced to death by Tehran's Criminal Court of First Instance on charges of 'Sab al-Nabi' (blasphemy against Prophet Muhammad). Initial reports indicate that Tataloo, who was previously sentenced to five years imprisonment for the same charge, received the death penalty after an appeal by the prosecution led to a retrial in the Sixth Branch of the Tehran Criminal Court. However, subsequent reports from Iranian media outlets, including Fars News Agency and the judiciary's media center, have denied the issuance of a death sentence, stating that the final verdict has not yet been issued and that Tataloo has recently been granted legal leniency.
