TEHRAN: An Iranian court on Monday freed on bail a female singer who performed in an online concert two weeks ago without adhering to the strict Islamic dress code, local media reported.
“Singer Parastoo Ahmadi went to the 38th District Court of Tehran´s Moral Security on Monday with her lawyers. Her charges were explained to her, and she was released on bail” of about $38,500, Ham Mihan daily reported.
The paper added that “charges were also explained to the musicians of the virtual concert,” and they were freed on bail of about $25,500 each. The concert, performed on December 11 with no audience present, was shot inside Iran with Ahmadi and her four-man backing band on keyboard, percussion and guitars, playing outside on a stage in the grounds of a traditional caravanserai complex.
