The son of a leading Iranian diplomat, who has documented his extravagant lifestyle on social media, fears for his life if he is extradited from Spain to Tehran to face human trafficking charges. Sasha Sobhani, whose father is the former Iranian ambassador to Venezuela, has requested asylum in Spain where he has lived for nearly two years. He is also accused by Iran of money laundering and running illegal gambling webpages. The request for his extradition came from Tehran via Interpol last week and Mr Sobhani's case is being heard in a Spanish court. He denies the charges and says the regime is angered by his way of life, which he displays via his Instagram account to his 2.6 million followers. Mr Sobhani’s account is full of photos of expensive cars, private planes, scantily clad women and alcohol.
