Armaghan Ashkan is the man who crushed an egg on the head of an Iranian diplomat in Copenhagen earlier this year. He just got back from his trial. He says he was given a 20-day suspended jail sentence. His lawyer has warned him not to throw any eggs for a year. According to Armaghan, the egged Iranian diplomat told the court that he was emotionally damaged by the attack and wanted damages for his eggy suit. So Armaghan and his friends collected money and bought him a new suit!
