Vakilabad Prison

Golrokh Ebrahimi Iraee was sentenced to 7 years in prison, banned from leaving the country and attending parties and groups, and her phone was confiscated.

On Thursday, April 13, 2023, Golrokh Ebrahimi Iraee was sentenced to 6 years in prison for “assembly and collusion” and one year for “propaganda against the state” in the 26th branch of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran. The sentence implemented for her will be six years.

She was also sentenced to a 2-year ban on staying in her hometown Tehran, and a 2-year ban on attending parties and groups. Her mobile phone is also going to be confiscated.

The presiding judge said he would disagree with her temporary release on bail.

The trial of Golrokh Ebrahimi Iraee was held at the 26th Branch of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran on January 4, 2023.

The security forces and the Judiciary had pressured Golrokh Ebrahimi Iraee to write a written request for amnesty. Ms. Ebrahimi refused to do so every time.

Security forces violently arrested Golrokh Iraee at her home on September 26, 2022. They ransacked her residence and confiscated some of her personal belongings.

In late October, Branch 2 of Evin’s Prosecutor’s Office informed Ms. Iraee regarding “assembly and collusion” and “propaganda against the state.”

Golrokh Iraee had been previously arrested and detained for her activities. In the latest case against her, the 26th Branch of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran sentenced her to three years and seven months in prison. The court also deprived her of membership in any group or party for two years.

The Revision Court later upheld the above verdict without convening any hearing.

Based on Article 134 of the clerical regime’s Penal Code, two years and one month of the verdict was applicable.

In April 2021, Golrokh Iraee was sentenced to one year in absentia and banned for two years from joining any group or party and leaving the country. Ms. Iraee had not informed of the convening of such a trial session.

Golrokh Iraee was finally released from the Prison of Amol on May 9, 2022.
