October 24, 2016

      A leading Iranian actress has backed mounting calls for the release of a prominent anti-death penalty activist who has been sentenced to 16 years in prison for campaigning against the death penalty.
      Narges Mohammadi is currently serving sentences for three charges related to her activism in Tehran's notorious Evin prison.
      Human rights groups and campaigners say she is critically ill with an unidentified illness. Her condition has been likened to epilepsy in a report by The Guardian and is said to affect her muscle control. Mohammadi, a mother of two from Zanjan, was arrested in May 2015 and convicted of “establishing and running the illegal splinter group Legam,” a campaign against the death penalty in Iran.
