A Brave Voice Silenced: Nobel Winner's Fight for Justice

Narges Mohammadi, a well-known human rights defender, was taken to the hospital not once, but twice, after a rough arrest. Her family shared this news, saying she was hurt badly by security forces. This happened on December 12, just days after she spoke out against the unclear death of a lawyer named Khosrow Alikordi. Mohammadi is no stranger to standing up for what's right. She has spent years fighting for women's rights and against the death penalty in Iran. In 2023, she even won the Nobel Peace Prize while she was in prison. But her fight hasn't been easy. She was just re-arrested after being released last year to get medical help.The authorities say Mohammadi and Alikordi's brother made trouble at the lawyer's memorial. They claim the two encouraged people to chant slogans and disrupt the peace. But Mohammadi's family paints a different picture. They say she was hit hard and taken to the hospital because of it. During a call to her family, she sounded weak and unwell. Adding to her troubles, Mohammadi told her family she was accused of working with the Israeli government. She also received death threats from security forces. Because of this, she asked her legal team to file a complaint against the security forces and the violent way she was arrested. It's unclear what the Iranian authorities think about all this. They haven't said anything yet. But one thing is clear: Mohammadi's fight for justice is far from over.
