On Monday, May 1, 2023, five female political prisoners were transferred from Qarchak Prison to Evin Prison in Tehran.

 

The reason for the transfer remains unknown, but there is speculation that it may signal the adoption of harsher policies toward political activities by the clerical regime in Iran. Political prisoners, particularly women, in Iran, face numerous problems in jail, including unsanitary conditions, lack of access to treatment, lack of access to defense counsel, and restrictions on their calls and visitations. The five women transferred to Evin Prison were Fatemeh Ziaii Azad (Hoorieh), Elaheh Mohammadi, Niloufar Hamedi, Soha Mortezaii, and Zohreh Sarv.

Fatemeh Ziaii Azad, a supporter of the People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), was arrested for the sixth time on September 10, 2022. She has Multiple Sclerosis and requires urgent medical care. Her two daughters are members of the MEK.

Elaheh Mohammadi, a journalist for Ham-Mihan newspaper, was arrested by security forces in Tehran on September 23, 2022. Last week, the Judiciary spokesperson announced that the Judiciary had indicted the detained journalists, and their case has been referred to Branch 15 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran.

Soha Mortezaii was serving her six-year sentence in Qarchak Prison. She was a Ph.D. student of political sciences when she was arrested and jailed in 2019. She was later deprived of continuing her education.

The regime’s media recently reported that the steroid Fluticasone, which is used to treat Asthma and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), has become scarce, and when it is available, it is extremely expensive.

Ali Khamenei recently called for making the regime’s anniversary carnival “more spectacular than before.” Despite their massive mobilization, the mullahs failed poorly to even put on a staged-managed spectacle.
