85 Nobel laureates called for full release of Nargiz Muhammadi

Nobel laureates from around the world have made a strong statement in response to growing pressure on Narges Mohammadi to serve more time in prison. In a single statement, more than 85 Nobel laureates are calling for the complete and unconditional release of all political prisoners, including 2023 Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi.

This was reported by the Narges Mohammadi Foundation.

“We, Nobel Laureates from across disciplines around the world, call for the full and unconditional release of our sister laureate, Narges Mohammadi, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize 2023. Narges was recognized “for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran and her fight to promote human rights and freedom for all”, becoming the fifth person to be awarded the prize while in prison.

Narges Mohammadi left Tehran’s notorious Evin prison on temporary medical leave in December 2024. We have united at this moment because her freedom remains tenuous and can be revoked at any time. We call for the temporary release to become permanent. Her resilience ignites a global call to action, reminding us that the pursuit of justice and freedom knows no borders.”

It should be mentioned that 52-year-old Nargiz Mohammadi, the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize winner, was last arrested in November 2021 and was found guilty of a number of crimes, including 154 lashes and 12 years and 9 months in prison. Due to health issues, she was recently released on bail and medical leave.
