Bruni labelled a ‘prostitute’

IRAN’S hardline media have called French first lady Carla Bruni a “prostitute” after she expressed strong support for an Iranian woman facing death by stoning for adultery.

The report by the state news website comes two days after the hardline Kayhan newspaper also described the wife of President Nicolas Sarkozy as a “prostitute.”

Bruni’s condemnation of the stoning sentence comes after about 300 people from rights organisations demonstrated in Paris to urge Iran to lift its death sentence on Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani.
