Narges Mohammadi, the Iranian Nobel Peace Prize winner, is in serious condition after being moved to a hospital from prison last week, as her family claims the Iranian regime has not permitted her to receive treatment at a specialized care facility.
The Narges Foundation, managed by Mohammadi’s family, stated on Friday that she was moved to a hospital in Zanjan province following “a severe decline in her health.” The family stated that she is still in the cardiology unit of that hospital.
Mohammadi’s relatives and advocates, along with the Norwegian Nobel Committee, have called on Tehran to permit her treatment by experts.
The family reported that her care at the Zanjan hospital aimed to stabilize her blood pressure and heart rate using oxygen therapy.
“The foundation stated in a weekend announcement that this does not represent a thorough treatment process.”
“Appropriate care for Narges Mohammadi’s ailments can only be achieved if she is moved to her medical team in Tehran,” it noted, stating that she requires a thorough evaluation and a treatment strategy considering her medical background.
Jørgen Watne Frydnes, chair of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, urged Iran to permit the treatment, asserting in a statement that Mohammadi’s “life now rests with the Iranian authorities.”
