Eleven months after her arrest and imprisonment, Nasim Gholami Simiyari remains detained under uncertain conditions in the women’s ward of Evin Prison in Tehran.
Security forces arrested political prisoner Nasim Gholami Simiyari on May 18, 2023, in Tehran and took her to one of the detention centers of the Ministry of Intelligence. She was subjected to psychological and physical torture to extract confessions.
The interrogator of Branch 3 of the Prosecutor’s Office in Tehran’s 33rd District has charged Ms. Gholami with the following offenses: disseminating propaganda against the state, engaging in assembly and collusion to disrupt national security, and membership in groups and gangs intended to disrupt national security.
Although her interrogations have concluded and her case has been referred to the Revolutionary Court, her due process has not yet commenced, and she remains in uncertain conditions. The charges against her carry the potential for severe sentences.
