According to the document issued by the criminal court, she was sentenced to two months in prison on the charge of "appearing to commit a haram act in public and harming public modesty", but based on the court's decision, an alternative punishment has been considered for her; 1- A six-month ban on the use of cyberspace, mobile phones and all telecommunications networks 2- Visiting psychological centers once every two weeks "to treat her anti-social disease" and finally presenting a "health certificate". The court has also issued additional restrictions for her; 1- two years ban from leaving the country 2- two years ban on publishing her images on domestic and foreign platforms and a ban on employment in the field of acting.
