2 November 2023

“On Sunday, 29 October, the media broke the news that [Nasrin Sotoudeh] had been arrested while attending the funeral of Armita Garavand, the 16-year-old girl who died after 28 days in a coma following her arrest by the infamous Morality Police in the Tehran metro.

She was taken along with other arrested women to the Vozara detention centre, the same one in which Mahsa Amini died last year.”
