Iran Sentences Rapper Toomaj Salehi to Death, Sparking Global Outcry

International protests erupt as Iranian rapper Toomaj Salehi faces execution for dissent, highlighting Iran's harsh crackdown on freedom of expression.

Iranian rapper Toomaj Salehi has been sentenced to death for 'corruption on earth' after criticizing the government through his music.
Salehi's death sentence has triggered widespread protests in the US, Europe, and Canada, with major US rappers and human rights groups voicing support.
Despite an earlier amnesty ruling by the Supreme Court, the Revolutionary Court of Isfahan upheld the death penalty, intensifying international condemnation.
Salehi, a vocal supporter of the Women, Life, Freedom movement, has been a symbol of resistance against the Iranian regime's oppression.
The case has exposed the extreme measures Iran is willing to take to suppress dissent, leading to calls for more severe international sanctions against Iran.
