A young woman by the name of Sepideh was sentenced to 99 lashes and internal exile only for having telephone contact and exchanging text messages with a man.
Sepideh’s husband was stabbed to death in 2012and the police has failed to apprehend the murderers.
She’s been sewing to earn a living with her six-year-old daughter.
Her parents-in-law took their complaints to the court when they found she had sent text messages and called another man. To this end she received 99 lashes on Friday and sentenced to internal exile.
