<<Murder of a Woman with Honor-Related Motives in Gilan Province
A woman identified as Narges Mousavi has been brutally murdered
by her husband in the town of Sangar, a suburb of Rasht, the capital of
Gilan Province, with honor-related motives. According to a report
received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, on Thursday, June
20, 2024 (June 20, 2024), in the village of Gisavandan in the Sangar
district of Rasht, a 40-year-old woman identified as Narges Mousavi was
killed by her husband with honor-related motives. The perpetrator killed
his wife with multiple machete blows, and Narges's sister was also
severely injured. According to informed sources, Narges Mousavi, who is
the mother of two children aged 8 and 15, had recently requested a
divorce from her husband. The murderer was arrested after committing the
crime and is currently detained in Lakan Prison in Rasht. He has cited
honor as his motive for killing his wife. The general criminal punitive
policy of the Islamic Republic on domestic violence and femicide
supports the patriarchal order. This policy, with the lack of
criminalization of domestic violence, the disproportion between crime
and punishment in this area, and the lack of social support for women
against violence, has led to the spread and normalization of crimes
against women.>>

<<Political Prisoners in Evin Boycott Presidential Runoff
Political prisoners in Tehran's Evin prison have boycotted the
second round of Iran's presidential election, IranWire reports. A mobile
ballot box was brought to the women's ward of Evin prison in the
afternoon, but the inmates refused to participate in the voting process.
This action aligns with a statement released earlier by nine female
political prisoners who identify themselves as <Leftist women imprisoned
in Evin Prison.> <Obviously, we did not and will not participate in the
presidential elections,> they said. They criticized the election, saying
that the two candidates represent <a symbol of the decay of this fascist
regime.> They described the election as <a desperate attempt to save a
desperate government that has lost its legitimacy.>
The boycott extends beyond the women's ward.
In the men's ward, political prisoners including Mustafa Tajzadeh,
Abdullah Momeni, Mohammad Najafi, Alireza Beheshti Shirazi, and Reza
Shahabi have also refused to participate in the elections. The election
pits two candidates against each other, Saeed Jalili, a hard-line former
nuclear negotiator, and Masoud Pezeshkian, a pro-reform heart surgeon.
The runoff was necessitated after the initial round of voting on June 28
failed to produce a candidate with over 50 per cent of the vote. That
first round also saw historically low voter participation, raising
questions about potential turnout for Friday's decisive vote.>>

<<Tarbiat Modares Students Call for Election Boycott
A group of students from Tarbiat Modares University in Tehran has
issued a statement boycotting the second round of presidential election.
The students emphasized their <loyalty> to the Woman, Life, Freedom
movement and called on others to <refuse to participate in the game of
authoritarian rule.> In their statement, released a day before the
second round of elections, the students declared, <In the Woman, Life,
Freedom movement, we regained our power and knew that change can only be
achieved by relying on the power of the people.> They argued that
participating in the election weakens the social power of the people and
hinders fundamental change. The Tarbiat Modares students' statement said
that they consider participation in the elections <far from human
dignity and value> and that they will pursue change and freedom by
relying on popular solidarity. Iran will hold a runoff presidential
election on July 5 after neither of the top candidates secured more than
50 per cent of the votes in Friday's polls. According to the final
results released by the ministry, with more than 24 million people
voting, moderate lawmaker Masoud Pezeshkian and hardliner Saeed Jalili
qualified for the runoff election.>>

<<Medical Student Jailed for Protesting Rapper's Death Sentence
A Revolutionary Court in Tehran has sentenced Motahareh Goonehi,
a suspended student from Tehran University of Medical Sciences, to one
year in prison. Judge Ali Mazloum found Goonehi guilty of <propaganda
activities against the Islamic Republic in favor of enemy media.> The
charge stems from her protest against the death sentence of rapper
Toomaj Salehi. However, the court acquitted Goonehi of the charges
including <insulting the Supreme Leader> and <disturbing public order.>
IRGC Intelligence forces arrested Goonehi in Tehran on May 1 following a
summons. She endured four days of detention in Evin Prison before being
released on bail. This sentence is not Goonehi's first brush with
repression. She and her husband, Mehdi Hadizadeh, both students at
Tehran University of Medical Sciences, previously faced temporary
suspension and forced transfer to Ardabil University of Medical Sciences
by the Central Committee of the Ministry of Health. Goonehi, a dentistry
student and known activist, was also arrested during the nationwide
protests of 2022.>>

<<Former Tehran University Student Sentenced to Prison for
<Propaganda>
Khashayar Sefidi, a 32-year-old former master's student in music
at the Tehran University of Art, has been sentenced to one year in
prison by a Revolutionary Court in Tehran. The verdict, issued on July 2
and sent to Sefidi's lawyer, found him guilty of <propaganda against the
Islamic Republic.> The court proceedings, which took place over two
sessions on May 27 and June 30, addressed charges of propaganda and
allegations of
<spreading false information about the death of Nika Shakarami,>
a victim of the 2022 nationwide protests in Iran.
Nika Shakarami
Sefidi, however, maintained in a video statement that he had not
posted anything regarding Shakarami on his personal page. The propaganda
charge stems from Sefidi's three-day sit-in strike supporting rapper
Toomaj Salehi, although further details about this protest were not
provided. Known for his protest music, Salehi was handed the death
sentence, which was later overturned by the Supreme Court in June. On
May 2, Safidi was summoned to branch 3 of the Public and Revolutionary
Prosecutor's Office in Tehran. After appearing and being informed of the
charges against him, he was released on bail. This legal action follows
Safidi's expulsion from the Tehran University of Art last year. Before
his expulsion, he had been temporarily suspended for one term by the
university's disciplinary committee.>>

2022, during an armed attack by the Revolutionary Guards forces on the
village of 'Porsurakh' in the Izeh district. In April 2023, Mojahed
Korkor was sentenced to death by the Ahvaz Revolutionary Court, and this

Seywan Ebrahimi

<<Summon and Arrest of Kurdish Language Teacher Seywan Ebrahimi,
for Execution of Prison Sentence
Seywan Ebrahimi, a Kurdish language teacher and board member of
the 'Nozhin' Socio-Cultural Association, has been arrested and
transferred to the central prison of Sanandaj after being summoned to
execute his eight-month prison sentence. He had recently been released
from prison following the annulment of a 10-year sentence in the
appellate court. According to a report received by the Hengaw
Organization for Human Rights, on Wednesday, July 3, 2024, Seywan
Ebrahimi, a Kurdish language teacher from Kamyaran and board member of
the 'Nozhin' Socio-Cultural Association, was arrested and transferred to
the central prison of Sanandaj to serve his eight-month sentence. This
followed his summons and appearance in the Revolutionary Court of
Sanandaj to merge his two sentences. Ebrahimi had previously been
summoned and arrested by the Sanandaj Court's Execution of Judgments
branch on December 30, 2023, to serve a one-year prison sentence for
<disrupting public order> and was transferred to the central prison of
this city. He was pardoned and released from the political prisoners’
ward on June 24, 2024. In December 2023, Ebrahimi was initially
sentenced to 10 years in prison for <forming a group and gang with the
intent to disturb national security> and one year for <propaganda
against the government,> totaling 11 years, by the First Branch of the
Revolutionary Court of Sanandaj, presided over by Judge Karami. However,
on June 23, 2024, the appellate court annulled his 10-year sentence,
acquitted him of that charge, and reduced his one-year sentence to eight
months.
In another case, Ebrahimi was sentenced by Branch 106 of the
Sanandaj Criminal Court to one year in prison, exile, and 40 lashes for
<disrupting public order.> On December 2, 2023, the appellate court
confirmed his prison and flogging sentences but annulled his exile
sentence to Dizelabad Prison in Kermanshah. Ebrahimi, a board member of
the Nozhin Cultural and Social Association, was arrested by security
forces on January 18, 2023. He was temporarily released on bail from
Sanandaj prison on February 13, 2023, pending the end of legal
proceedings. Previously, on January 3, 2023, Ebrahimi was arrested by
security forces while following up on the case of his wife, Zara
Mohammadi, at the Sanandaj Revolutionary Court and was released on bail
on January 5.>>

Sharifeh Mohammadi
Hengaw Organisation for Human Right - 4 July 2024
<<Rasht: Labor activist, Sharifeh Mohammadi, sentenced to death
for <rebellion>
Sharifeh Mohammadi, a labor activist detained seven months ago,
is currently imprisoned in the women's ward of Rasht's Lakan Prison (Rasht
Central Prison). Recently, she has been sentenced to death by the
Iranian Judiciary on charges of <rebellion>. According to the report
received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, Sharifeh Mohammadi,
a labor activist from Rasht, has recently been sentenced to death by the
First Branch of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Court in Rasht. This
verdict was handed down by Judges Ahmed Darwish Goftar and Mehdi Raskhi.
Mohammadi was charged with <rebellion for to her involvement with the
Coordination Committee for the Formation of Labor Organizations and its
alleged affiliation with the Komala Party>. The court's decision is
based on Articles 211 and 287 of the Islamic Penal Code, ratified in
2013. According to documents obtained by Hengaw, Sharifeh Mohammadi's
lawyer has been formally notified of the verdict. This ruling may be
appealed to the Supreme Court of Iran within 20 days of the
notification.
The documents also state, <The country's intelligence
organization is the sole authority designated to identify gang members.
All reports from the Intelligence Department of Gilan Province and the
Intelligence Department of Kurdistan Province are included in the case
file, identifying the accused as a member of the Komala Party and the
Coordination Committee.> This underscores the lack of independence
within the Iranian Judiciary and highlights the significant influence of
security institutions over the judicial process.
It is important to note that the hearing for the charges against
Sharifeh Mohammadi took place on Saturday, June 8, 2024, in the First
Branch of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Court in Rasht. According to
a previous report by Hengaw, Sharifeh Mohammadi, a Gilak woman from
Rasht, endured mental and physical torture at the hands of Iranian
Intelligence interrogators in Sanandaj, who sought to extract a forced
confession from her. On Tuesday, December 5, 2023, Sharifeh Mohammadi
was forcibly arrested at her home in Rasht by Iranian Intelligence
forces. Over the past seven months (212 days), she has been held in the
central prisons of Sanandaj and Lakan in Rasht, as well as in detention
centers operated by the Iranian intelligence service.>>

Against the Death Sentence of Toomaj Salehi
Khashayar Sefidi, a dismissed student of the University of
Tehran’s Art department, and Motahare Goonei, a student activist and
detainee in the Jin, Jiyan, Azadi (Woman, Life, Freedom) movement, have
each been sentenced to one year of imprisonment by the judiciary of the
Islamic Republic of Iran. According to a report received by the Hengaw
Organization for Human Rights, Khashayar Sefidi, 32 years old and
residing in Tehran, was recently sentenced by the Tehran Revolutionary
Court to one year of prison for the charges of <propaganda against the
Islamic Republic of Iran> and <spreading falsehoods.>
Additionally, Motahare Goonei, a suspended and exiled student,
was sentenced to one year of prison by Branch 29 of the Tehran
Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Ali Mazloomi, on charges of
<propaganda activities against the government.> The charges against
these students are reported to be their support for Toomaj Salehi, an
artist and political prisoner, and their protest against the issuance of
a death sentence for him.
Khashayar Sefidi, a former student of the University of Tehran's
Art department, was expelled from this university by the disciplinary
committee late last year. He had previously played musical pieces in
mourning for
Kian Pirfalak Armita Gevarnand
Kian Pirfalak and in commemoration of Armita Geravand, children
killed by government forces.
On Wednesday, April 3, 2024, Motahare Goonei was arrested in
Tehran after being summoned by the IRGC intelligence. She was released
from Evin Prison on May 5, 2024, on bail. Motahare Goonei had previously
been detained for a period by security forces in Tehran during the Jin,

<<Jailed Iranian-Swedish Academic's Wife Disappointed in Sweden's
Govt
The wife of Ahmadreza Jalali, an Iranian-Swedish academic on
hunger strike in an Iranian prison, expressed disappointment following a
meeting with Sweden's Foreign Minister Tobias Billstrom on Tuesday. Vida
Mehrannia, accompanied by her daughter, met with Billstrom to urge a
more decisive action to secure her husband's release. <They told me they
are following the case,> Mehrannia told reporters after the meeting.
<They didn't clarify anything. I'm very disappointed.> Mehrannia painted
a grim picture of her husband's deteriorating health condition. <His
pulse is very weak. His blood pressure is low. He is suffering from
multiple illnesses,> she said, addressing a small crowd of supporters
who had gathered outside the Swedish Foreign Ministry. Despite the
setback, Mehrannia vowed to continue her efforts. <I hope Sweden
responds, after eight years and three months,> she said. Jalali began
the hunger strike on June 25 in response to his exclusion from a recent
prisoner swap between Iran and Sweden.
Vida Mehrannia, announced the hunger strike on social media,
saying, <My husband, who faces imminent execution by the Islamic
Republic, started a hunger strike on Tuesday, June 25, in protest of not
being included in the recent prisoner exchange between Iran and Sweden.>
The June 15 prisoner swap saw the release of Hamid Nouri, a former
Iranian official convicted and jailed in Sweden for war crimes and mass
executions during the 1988 government killings of political prisoners in
Iran. In exchange, Tehran freed two Swedish citizens, Johan Floderus, a
diplomat, and Saeed Azizi.
The academic's exclusion from this exchange has raised concerns
among human rights advocates and his family. Jalali, a university
lecturer and expert in disaster medicine, was arrested in Iran in 2016.
In 2017, he told his family that he was sentenced to death after
refusing to cooperate with Iran's Intelligence organization and spy on
Iranian scientists abroad. Jalali is suffering from serious health
problems, and Amnesty International has urged Tehran's Prosecutor
General to allow him to receive specialized medical care.>>

<<Zeinab Jalalian in Dire Health and Continued Pressure from
Intelligence Ministry
Increased Worries About Zeinab Jalalian's Health
Kurdish political prisoner Zeinab Jalalian, who is currently
serving her seventeenth year in Yazd Central Prison, has been facing
severe health issues in recent weeks. Zeinab was transferred to the
prison's medical facility due to intense pain in her right side.
However, after a general examination, she was returned to her cell
without receiving specialized tests or definitive treatment. Despite her
persistent health problems, including oral thrush, pterygium, asthma,
and kidney and gastrointestinal issues, Zeinab's requests for transfer
to external medical facilities have been consistently denied by the
Intelligence Ministry.
Continued Medical Neglect
Zeinab's health has been deteriorating, with her pain
intensifying over the past weeks. Although she was taken to the prison
infirmary, the attending general practitioner only performed a basic
check-up. Her requests for specialized medical attention outside the
prison were again rejected by the Intelligence Ministry. This denial of
adequate medical care is further compounded by the pressure from the
ministry.
Pressures from the Intelligence Ministry
In June this year, a team from the Intelligence Ministry met
Jalalian twice at Yazd Central Prison, demanding that she sign a
<repentance letter> drafted by the ministry. The officials assured that
her medical treatment and the possibility of parole would be reviewed
upon her signing the letter. However, Jalalian refused to sign,
asserting her right to medical treatment as a prisoner. In November
2023, she was also subjected to interrogation by the Intelligence
Ministry, who threatened to withhold her basic prisoner rights,
including medical services, unless she expressed remorse. Jalalian
deemed these interrogations, conducted while she was handcuffed and
shackled, as a form of torture.>>

of <Waging War Against God> Despite Previous Acquittal
Karvan Shahi-Parvaneh (Himen Shahi-Parvaneh), one of the

by the judiciary of the Islamic Republic of Iran on the charge of <Moharebeh>
(<Waging War Against God.>) This protester who has spent a year and 10
months in detention, had previously been acquitted of this charge.
According to a report received by Hengaw Organization for Human Rights,

prisoner detained in Oshnavieh Prison, was tried in absentia on the
charge of <Moharebeh> by Judges Najafzadeh, Shahini, and Gholami of
Branch 3 of the Revolutionary Court of Urmia. The re-attribution of the
charge of <Moharebeh> to this political prisoner occurred despite his
previous acquittal of this charge, and recently, under the pressure of
the Intelligence Department, the case was reopened. Karvan
Shahi-Parvaneh had been granted a 5-day furlough on Thursday, March 21,
2024, after enduring 18 months of detention. It is noteworthy that this
political prisoner, in protest against the continued uncertainty of his
case and the lack of follow-up, went on a hunger strike for a period
starting on May 7, 2024, in Oshnavieh Central Prison. Karvan
Shahi-Parvaneh was arrested by the city's Intelligence Department forces
on the evening of Monday, October 24, 2022, during the 'Woman, Life,
Freedom' movement. During his detention, he was subjected to numerous
and continuous physical and psychological tortures. He, along with six
other detainees from Oshnavieh, was charged with <Moharebeh> and, after
18 months, was acquitted of the charge of <Moharebeh> in the last
session of the trial at Branch 3 of the Revolutionary Court of Urmia.
