Overview
- Mohammadi, moved Friday to a Zanjan hospital after two fainting spells, is in a cardiac care unit with unstable blood pressure, her lawyer and foundation said.
- Her family and foundation say the transfer followed about 140 days of medical neglect in custody and call it a desperate, last-minute step.
- Relatives say doctors in Zanjan cannot perform the urgent cardiac procedure she needs and that it must be done in Tehran.
- Authorizations have bounced between Zanjan and Tehran courts, and her foundation says Iran’s Intelligence Ministry opposes a transfer to the capital.
- The Norwegian Nobel Committee urges Iran to release her to her own medical team, noting the 2023 laureate’s re-arrest on Dec. 12 and her history of heart disease, including a reported March heart attack.
