Iranian human rights activist and 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi has been sentenced to a total of seven and a half years in prison, according to her lawyer and a supporting organization. Lawyer Mostafa Nili told AFP that Mohammadi received six years for 'assembly and collusion to commit crimes' and another one and a half years for 'spreading anti-state propaganda.' The ruling also includes two years of exile in Khosf, South Khorasan Province, and a two-year travel ban. Nili said the verdict is not final and can be appealed, expressing hope that Mohammadi might be temporarily released on medical grounds due to serious health issues.
Mohammadi began a hunger strike on February 2 to protest restrictions on contacting her lawyer and family. The Narges Foundation stated she ended the strike on its sixth day, though her health remains in critical condition. She was arrested on December 12 after protesting the mysterious death of lawyer Khosro Alikordi. Prosecutor Hassan Hematifar accused her of making provocative remarks at a memorial event in Mashhad.
Mohammadi, deputy director of the Defenders of Human Rights Center, is Iran’s second female Nobel Peace Prize winner after Shirin Ebadi in 2003.
