Family Fears for Jailed Iranian Nobel Peace Laureate's Life if She's Not Moved to a Tehran Hospital
Her family says she faces serious medical risks after a heart attack, and authorities have kept her in hospital instead of moving her to Tehran.
- Family members of imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi expressed fear for her life on Tuesday after Iranian authorities refused to transfer her from Zanjan to Tehran for specialized medical care.
- Mohammadi, 54, suffered a heart attack last week while serving her sentence, and her husband Taghi Rahmani warned that her existing conditions, including high blood pressure and a pulmonary embolism, could prove fatal.
- Rahmani, living in Paris, struggles to maintain contact with Narges through acquaintances and lawyers due to internet outages, while their 19-year-old twins remain separated from their mother for over 10 years.
- Security officials refuse to move Mohammadi to Evin prison in Tehran, fearing her potential for activism, which Rahmani said is considered "a threat to the system."
- The ongoing Iran war has granted the military greater control, worsening conditions for activists, while Rights groups report that executions continue under the shadow of conflict.
