Ahmad Seiar Froogh was earlier convicted of manslaughter in an Afghan pop star's B.C. death.
A Vancouver man who pleaded guilty to criminal harassment of a person from an East Vancouver mosque has been sentenced to a three-year conditional sentence.
Froogh, 36, then 22, was convicted of manslaughter in the May 2005 death of Afghan pop singer Nasrat Parsa and sentenced in 2009 to house arrest and probation.Crown prosecutor Rosanne Sinclair told Vancouver provincial court Judge Kathryn Denhoff that the woman had been at the East Hastings mosque when the door buzzer began ringing through to her phone repeatedly. She ignored it, court heard.
Both Bownick and Sinclair detailed Froogh’s attempts to deal with depression and schizophrenia, the latter condition not having been diagnosed until after the mosque-related incidents. The court heard that Froogh and some friends followed Parsa to his Kingsway hotel to get an autograph after they had attended his concert at Vancouver's Queen Elizabeth Theatre.
