Iran extends prison term of Nobel-winning activist
October 26, 2024
|The Independent
Iranian authorities have added six months to the prison sentence of rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi, according to a group campaigning for her release.
Ms Mohammadi was sentenced on 19 October, charged with "disobeying and resisting orders" in prison, the Free Narges Coalition said in a statement. She is being held at Iran's notorious Evin Prison, which houses political prisoners and those with Western ties.
After the execution of a political prisoner in the women's ward of the prison in August, Ms Mohammadi staged a protest, the organisation said, leading to her additional prosecution. Mohammadi was already serving a 30-month sentence, to which 15 more months were added in January. Iran's government has not acknowledged her additional sentencing.
