37-year-old Iranian singer Amir Hossein Maghsoodloo, known as Tataloo, is at the center of a scandal that could result in his execution.. This is reported by The Independent with reference to the Iranian publication Etemad.. He was accused of insulting the Prophet Muhammad, propaganda against the Islamic Republic, supporting prostitution and publishing obscene content.. Tatalu had previously been convicted on similar charges, but then received five years in prison. After the prosecutor's appeal, the punishment was revised, and now he faces the death penalty. The singer left Iran in 2018, moving to Turkey. However, in December 2023 he was deported back to Iran, where he was immediately detained and brought to trial. Iranian media later noted that the execution verdict was not yet final and could be appealed.. However, the chances of a mitigation of punishment remain extremely low. Earlier it was reported that Iranian authorities confirmed for the first time that 29-year-old Italian journalist Cecilia Sala was arrested for “violating the laws of the Islamic Republic.”.
