Iran Issues New Multi-Year Sentences for Nobel Laureate Narges Mohammadi

Her lawyer says the new rulings extend her imprisonment with internal exile imposed after her recent hunger strike.

Overview

  • Attorney Mostafa Nili said an Iranian court issued a new term reported as six years for assembly and collusion, plus 18 months for propaganda, alongside a two-year travel ban and two years of enforced residence in Khosf.
  • Several outlets report the latest prison term as more than seven years, reflecting differing accounts of the exact length and how parallel cases are being aggregated.
  • Mohammadi was rearrested on December 12 during the funeral of rights lawyer Khosrow Alikordi and has since been held in isolation in Mashhad, in a facility tied to the Revolutionary Guard, according to reports.
  • She began a hunger strike on February 2 and was briefly hospitalized, with family and supporters citing serious cardiac and other health concerns.
  • Already carrying prior convictions totaling more than 13 years and previously released on health grounds in 2025, she now faces a longer cumulative term that has drawn renewed international criticism.
