Iranian Regime Issues Death Threats Against Rapper Shahin Najafi on Apostasy Charges

The Iranian regime has issued death threats against rapper Shahin Najafi over a controversial song he recorded.
The regime says the song is blasphemous. Now they want him dead.
Iran 180 reported:

Al Arabiya has reported that Ayatollah Safi Golpayegani, a Shi’ite cleric based in Iran has issued a fatwa against rap artist Shahin Najafi on charges of apostasy. The reality of the situation is that Najafi, who has resided in Germany as a rapper and rock guitarist since 2005, is receiving this sentence after his release of a controversial song called “Naqi” that the regime claims to be offensive to Islam. Since the sentence was announced, an aggressive online campaign calling for the hanging of Najafi has been deployed on “Asr Emrous”, an Iranian news website with strong connections with the regime, and on Facebook.

This screenshot taken of the campaigns Facebook page has been translated to read,
“We Will Kill Shahin Najafi. $100,000 for the person who murders this filthy animal.”

Here is Najafi’s controversial song – Shahin Najafi & Majid Kazemi – “Naghi”
Enjoy!
