Iranian who rapped about protests over hijab is back in jail

IndiaTimes Friday, 1 December 2023
Iran sent a popular rapper back to jail less that two weeks after his release from prison on bail, an Iranian news website reported on Thursday. Mizanonline.ir, an online news outlet affiliated with Iran's judiciary, said Toomaj Salehi was arrested on a new charge of "spreading lies and violation of public opinion". ​​Salehi was released from prison in mid-November after spending more than a year in custody on charges that his supporters said were based on the hip-hop artist's music and participation in the protests that broke out in Iran over the death of Mahsa Amini.
