Nahid Taghavi's life in danger at Evin Prison.
The life of a German Iranian detained in Iran is in danger and she is in such pain she can barely move, a fellow prisoner who is a prominent rights activist said Sunday.
Nahid Taghavi, 68, was sentenced to 10 years and eight months in jail in August 2021 after being arrested at her Tehran apartment in October 2020, and is being held in solitary confinement at Tehran's Evin prison.
Narges Mohammadi wrote: "She can barely get out of her bed. She goes to the infirmary, receives strong painkiller injections and returns to her bed." "The pain is so severe it can be seen on her face," she added.
Mohammadi said that Taghavi had now spent 220 days in solitary confinement. This had worsened an existing spinal disc condition, and she was now also suffering from cervical disc problems, diabetes and high blood pressure.
