She is deprived of being visited by her family. Security forces arrested Ms. Asghari at her residence in Tehran on September 14, 2023, and took her away to Evin Prison. Samaneh Asghari is a student of Industrial Engineering at Kharazmi University in Tehran and a children’s rights activist. She was arrested last October during the 2022 protest.

The 15th Branch of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran has sentenced her to 18 years and three months of jail time, but she was released in April from Qarchak Prison based on the so-called general amnesty granted to prisoners by Ali Khamenei.

The clerical regime has resorted to widespread arrests on the anniversary of the 2022 nationwide uprising which was sparked last September. They have arrested numerous former political prisoners, protesting students, and other activists to prevent the outbreak of another uprising.

 

In the meantime, Mehrnaz Khorrami remains in one of the detention centers of the IRGC Intelligence in Sari, the capital of Mazandaran Province, northern Iran.
