Iran Sentences Man to Death for Killing Prominent Filmmaker
==========

An Iranian court has sentenced a man to death for the killing of renowned filmmaker Dariush Mehrjui and his wife at their home near Tehran. Mehrjui, an 83-year-old director, was stabbed to death in October. The convicted killer, a former employee of Mehrjui, had a grudge against him due to financial issues. Three others were charged in the case for planning and assisting the murder. The court sentenced the killer to death in accordance with the Islamic law of retribution. The other defendants received sentences ranging from eight to 36 years in prison. The verdicts can be appealed before the Supreme Court.
