Iranian authorities must immediately quash the convictions in mid-June of singer Parastoo Ahmadi and eight other musicians who were each sentenced to 74 lashes, a two-year travel ban and two-year ban on artistic activities. Their sentences relate to a live-streamed 2024 concert in Qom province where Parastoo Ahmadi performed unveiled in a sleeveless dress. The video went viral, gaining millions of views. Flogging constitutes cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment, and violates the absolute prohibition on torture and other ill-treatment. Iranian authorities must abolish compulsory veiling and corporal punishment and end the criminalization of freedom of expression.
