An Iran couple was sentenced to jail after a video of them dancing near Tehran's Azadi Tower went viral on social media. A court in an Islamic country gave a prison time of 10 years and 6 months for dancing in the streets in support of the Iran protests. Moreover, the couple has been slapped with a two-year ban from using social media and leaving the country. They have been charged with “encouraging corruption and public prostitution”.
