In 2023, Mehdi Yarrahi dared to sing a song titled Roosarito (Your Scarf):

For singing this song, the occupying regime in Iran arrested, jailed, and tortured him before releasing him on bail (a ridiculously large amount of money). Finally, he was tried and sentenced.
Yarrahi explains everything in a recent video (which has English subtitles): https://youtu.be/FHumzB_kaMw?si=GzYWCNcuArfCtEzQ
Today, finally, the last part of his sentence, 74 lashes, was completed.
Yarrahi has not been allowed to work during this time, and even though he is now officially released and his sentence is done, he is still suffering physically, mentally, ... and financially.
Mehdi Yarrahi has always stood with the people, fighting alongside them with his music. We can support him by listening to his songs on YouTube.
