US President Donald Trump Thursday called on Tehran not to execute a famous Iranian wrestler for his participation in anti-government protests.
Navid Afkari, 27, was arrested after being accused of taking part in anti-government protests that broke out across Iran in 2018.
He was given two death sentences, along with whippings, for protesting, Iran International reported.
