US EditionImprisoned Iranian Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi is in worsening health, husband says
Narges Mohammadi, imprisoned for human rights activism, faces worsening heart and pulmonary conditions after assault and limited legal contact, now serving an added seven-year sentence.
- On Feb. 2, Narges Mohammadi, imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize laureate, began a hunger strike in prison as her health worsens partly due to a beating during her arrest in Mashhad, Iran, her husband said.
- Plainclothes security forces assaulted Mohammadi at a memorial for a human rights lawyer, witnesses say, as she was arrested weeks before nationwide protests.
- Her medical records show Mohammadi has three of her four coronary arteries constricted and severe pulmonary problems, with limited contact since her sentencing, including a single brief phone call to her brother.
- A Revolutionary Court in Mashhad handed down a new sentence Saturday; Mohammadi was already serving 13 years and nine months and had been released on furlough since late 2024.
- Her case comes amid nationwide protests that peaked Jan. 8 to Jan. 9, with rights groups counting more than 7,000 dead and more than 50,000 arrests reported by HRANA.
