WRITE FOR RIGHTS 2018 ATENA DAEMI, IRAN

ATENA DAEMI, IRAN “The judge told me that my opposition to compulsory veiling was tantamount to opposing the clear rulings of the Qur’an and that I had insulted religious sanctities and my sentence should be the death penalty.” – Atena Daemi, in a post on her Facebook page, October 2016.

What is it about? March 2015: Trial takes place before Branch 28 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran and lasts no more than 15 minutes. Atena is informed that she has been sentenced to 14 years in prison for “gathering and colluding to commit crimes against national security”, “spreading propaganda against the system”, “insulting the founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Supreme Leader” and for concealing evidence (according to the court verdict this related to Atena “changing the passwords to the Facebook and email accounts” of another activist). February 2016: She is released from prison after securing bail pending the outcome of her appeal. September and November 2016: Branch 36 of the Court Appeal in Tehran reduces her sentence to seven years in prison. Atena is arrested to begin serving her seven-year prison sentence.

ATENA DAEMI, IRAN IMPORTANT: Please do not use religious symbols, imagery or texts. Please also do not use Atena’s case to promote gambling or in connection with images of alcohol. Please make sure that the wording used in your communication DOES NOT imply that Amnesty has any direct contact with the family inside Iran as this would put them at risk.
