Iran: Case of civil activist sent to penal court

The case of Sara Sa’ie, an activist of the “Erfan Halghe” group, has been sent to branch 1060 of Tehran’s 2nd penal court.

Her lawyer, Mohammad Moghimi, announced the new development.

He said Sa’ie was a student of political prisoner Mohammad Ali Taheri, and was arrested on November 21 during a rally of civil activists outside Evin Prison, and subsequently sent to the notorious women’s Qarchak Prison in Varamin. The charge raised against her is “disrupting public order”.
