Iranian Actress Sentenced Jail & 90 Lashes By Court

Iranian Actress Marzieh Vafamehr has been sentenced one year jail and 90 lashes by court for her acting in an Australian film ‘My Tehran for Sale’ where she allegedly violated ‘limit’.

Marzieh Vafamehr appeared in the film without a ‘hijab’ and with a shaved head. She was first arrested in Tehran in July after the film was heavily criticised by Iran’s conservative commentators. The movie is based on a story of a young actress in Tehran whose theatre work is banned by the authorities.

‘My Tehran for Sale’ won Independent Spirit Inside Film award in 2009 and the jury award for best feature film at the Trimedia Film Festival in 2010.

The film was directed by Iranian-Australian Granaz Moussavi..
