On September 22, the woman journalist Niloofar Hamedi who broke the story of Mahsa Amini’s death, was reportedly arrested by the Iranian authorities. Mohammed Ali Kamfirouzi, the advocate representing Hamedi, informed about the arrest on social media. Hamedi works for Shargh newspaper. Her arrest was confirmed to Committed to Protect Journalists (CPJ) by her father, Gholamreza Moaiery, who told the organization that she was detained in Qarchak prison, a female-only detention facility in Varamin, Iran. On September 29, 2022, security forces arrested Elaheh Mohammadi, a reporter for the daily newspaper Hammihan. As a reporter, Mohammdi had gone to Saqqez and made a report on Mahsa Amini’s funeral and she got arrested as well. The Iranian authorities must understand that they cannot hide the nationwide protests against the government by imprisoning journalists. We people of Iran are truly worried about them since they’re still imprisoned under Islamic Republic’s torcher. Please help free them from jail. | ||||||||
