Overview
- Her family’s Narges Foundation says Mohammadi suffered severe baton blows to the head and neck during her Dec. 12 arrest and appeared unwell in a brief call late Sunday.
- She was detained after addressing a memorial for lawyer Khosrow Alikordi in Mashhad, where the prosecutor alleges she encouraged “norm‑breaking” slogans and says 38 people were arrested, including activist Sepideh Gholian.
- One brother told AFP she was examined by a physician but not hospitalized, a discrepancy with the foundation’s account that she was taken to an ER twice.
- According to the foundation, Mohammadi told relatives she was accused of “cooperating with the Israeli government” and asked her lawyers to file a formal complaint over the arrest and alleged violence.
- Civil society figures, including filmmaker Jafar Panahi, called for her immediate and unconditional release, and the Nobel committee labeled the arrest “brutal,” while authorities have not provided a detailed response.
