Nobel Peace Prize: laureate Narges Mohammadi imprisoned in Iran – (FRANCEINFO)
The Nobel Peace Prize will be awarded on Sunday December 10 in Oslo, Norway, to the children of Narges Mohammadi, because the 2023 laureate, who fights for human rights in Iran, is currently imprisoned in her country.
He is a Nobel Peace Prize winner who will not be able to receive his award on Sunday, December 10, in Oslo, Norway. Narges Mohammadi, a 51-year-old Iranian activist and journalist, was rewarded in October for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran. But she has been imprisoned since 2022 because of her commitment. Her husband, a journalist and writer, has been exiled in Paris for twelve years, with their two children. The three of them will go to Oslo to collect the prize.
The hope of his release
The human rights activist is detained in Tehran in Evin prison. She has just ended a hunger strike, which began a month ago. His family still hopes for his release. “It’s a bit like Nelson Mandela, there’s my mother’s name, so she’s the one who’s summoned, but unfortunately, it’s us who have to go in her place”testifies his son Ali, “proud to be the voice” from his mother.
