Officially, Iran says it does't imprison people for their opinions.

But a Tehran court has just sentenced a 29-year-old artist, Atena Farghadani, to more than twelve years in prison.

Her main "crime" was to draw a picture of Iranian politicians as animals.

This week, Roland Elliott Brown looks at her case.
