Iran revokes death penalties handed to three protesters
The executions were reduced to jail terms in a controversial case that had drawn a furious public backlash.
A court in the Iranian capital handed five-year jail sentences to three anti-government protesters, officially reversing their death penalties issued at a trial in 2020.
The three, Amir-Hossein Moradi, Saeed Tamjidi and Mohammad Rajabi, were detained during the country's November 2019 unrest that was triggered by an unpopular fuel price hike plan.
