Iranian female bodybuilder arrested for posting un-Islamic selfies - media

An female Iranian bodybuilder has been arrested after publishing selfie of her muscles on social media which were deemed to be 'nude', Daily Mail reports.

The woman, who is accused of breaking the Islamic Republic's strict rules on nudity, has been locked up in prison because she was unable to post bail of two million rials, the Mizanonline news agency reported.

She has not been identified but it is thought she may be Shirin Nobahari, one of two women who took part in an international competition and were reported in September to have been warned about selfies which they posted afterwards.
