A court in Iran sentenced two journalists to up to seven years in prison for collaborating with the U.S. government and other charges, local reports said Sunday. Both women have been imprisoned for more than a year following their coverage of the death of Mahsa Amini while in police custody in September 2022. The sentencing can be appealed within 20 days.
The Office of the U.S. Special Envoy for Iran condemned the sentences on the platform X, formerly known as Twitter, and said: “Niloufar and Elaheh should never have been jailed, and we condemn their sentences.” It also said, “The Iranian regime jails journalists because it fears the truth.” The office is responsible for developing, coordinating and implementing the State Department’s Iran policy and reports directly to the secretary of State.
