RT by @MarietjeSchaake: Renowned Iranian human rights lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh was arbitrarily detained in Iran today after being beaten by state security agents during the funeral for Armita Geravand in Tehran’s Beheshte Zahra Cemetery, eyewitnesses told BBC Persian.
Sotoudeh, who is not only a dedicated defense attorney but also a fervent advocate for women's and human rights, has endured years of incarceration in Iran as a political prisoner due to her unwavering commitment to championing fundamental rights.
Her immediate release is imperative, and Iranian authorities must cease infringing upon the right to mourn.
