Nasrin Hassani, a Journalist, Sentenced to One-Year Prison Term for Alleged Spreading of Propaganda against Government

The Bojnurd Revolutionary Court has handed down a one-year prison sentence to journalist Nasrin Hassani after finding her guilty of “spreading propaganda against the regime.” The court cited her online posts and photo publications as evidence of this alleged offense.

This verdict follows a prior seven-month imprisonment issued by the Bojnurd Criminal Court for “disseminating false information,” coupled with an additional fine for non-compliance with public Hijab regulations.

Nasrin Hassani, the managing editor of the weekly newspaper Siahat-e Shargh, was officially indicted on September 3 of this year and subsequently released on bail.

Notably, Hassani had previously experienced legal consequences during the Mahsa Amini Protests in September 2022 when she was arrested by security forces. She was later released after a period of detention.
