"Since 2022, when the Woman, Life, Freedom protests against the Islamic
Republic’s leadership erupted across Iran, the authorities have dramatically
intensified their clampdown on members of the Baha'is faith.
Many Baha'is have been arrested, prosecuted and handed stiff sentences, with
multiple observers drawing parallels with the persecution they endured in the
1980s.
Baha'i women have borne a disproportionate brunt of the government’s repressive
measures.
Yekta Fohandej Sa'adi, who has been in custody for 48 days, is among them.
Her family remains uninformed of her health condition and the details of her
case.
Fohandej had previously been arrested and tried on four separate occasions."
