Iranian authorities have arrested multiple music producers connected to a California-based Iranian pop singer in Tehran’s latest effort to halt what it deems decadent Western behaviour.

The arrests come as Iranian social media has been awash with criticism of the new music video of popular singer, Sasy – real name Sasan Heidari Yafteh.
