  "account": "A 23-year-old Iranian student, Najmeh Amini, has been sentenced to death for a social media post deemed blasphemous towards Prophet Muhammad, according to human rights activists. She was convicted of \"sab ol-nabi,\" the act of insulting the Prophet, and received an additional 12 years and one day in prison on charges related to national security and anti-government propaganda. Amini was apprehended on January 31 following her involvement in anti-government protests. She had previously been accused of insulting Iran's supreme leader and confronting security personnel. In a recording dated September 18, Amini pleaded for legal aid and international support, stating, \"I only seek justice and the chance to defend myself,\" requesting lawyers and human rights organizations to evaluate her situation. Amnesty International has called for immediate action to halt and overturn the death sentence, alleging that Amini was denied access to legal counsel and faced a potential risk of torture. The Iranian government has not yet commented on the case or whether the death penalty has been appealed.",
