Vahid Ashtari was sentenced to 18 months in prison due to the ‘Sismooni Gate’.
Vahid Ashtari, a media activist who shared the story of Ghalibaf’s daughter’s purchase of baby items from Turkey, announced on his Twitter by posting an image of the court’s verdict that he has been sentenced to 18 months in prison over this matter. He wrote, ‘This is the complete verdict of the Sismooni Gate case which was reviewed again and resulted in an 18-month prison sentence in branch 1057. It is regrettable that up to this stage of the proceedings, I still do not understand exactly what my charges are and what I should defend against. I am publishing the full verdict so that judges, lawyers, and legal experts can read it and give their opinions.’
