A knowledgeable source about the situation of Azar Yahoo, a political prisoner held in Vakilabad Prison in Mashhad, told Iran International that he has been sentenced by Iran’s Islamic Republic judiciary to three years in prison on the charge of “having a connection with Israel through leaving comments for Netanyahu.”

The basis of the charge against Yahoo was leaving comments for Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel. If the verdict is confirmed and made final, one year of his sentence will be served, and the remaining two years will be suspended.
