In Iran, the social networking site Instagram is the only one allowed to be used by the citizens of the country. Social media applications like Facebook and Twitter are banned in the country. While the country has given certain privileges to the citizens, an Iranian Instagrammer Sahar Tabar was recently arrested for posting scary pictures that bear a similarity to Maleficent star Angelina Jolie. According to reports in The National, quoting semi-official Tasnim news agency, the Instagrammer Sahar Tabar was held captive over the charges of ‘cultural crimes and social and moral corruption.’
According to the report, Sahar took to her Instagram to post a spooky picture of her altered face through plastic surgery which later looked like a scary and spine-chilling version of Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie. The report added that Tabar will face charges of blasphemy, inciting violence, gaining income through inappropriate means and encouraging youths to corruption.
