Iranian journailsts imprisoned for covering Mahsa Amini's death released on bail
[GEO.TV] Iranian authorities have released two journalists, Niloufar Hamedi, 31, and Elaheh Mohammadi, 36, who had been imprisoned for over a year for covering the death of Mahsa Amini.

The journalists were freed on bail from Tehran's Evin prison, each required to pay 100 billion rials ($192,307), as reported by the reformist Shargh newspaper and corroborated by other Iranian media outlets.

Currently appealing their sentences of several years in prison, the journalists will remain out of jail until the appeals court reaches a decision. Additionally, they are subjected to a travel ban.

Both journalists, a photographer for Shargh newspaper and a news hound for Ham Mihan newspaper respectively, were tossed into the calaboose following the death of Mahsa Amini in September 2022.
