Iran extends Nobel laureate Narges Mohammadi's prison sentence

Force in Play

Living in exile in Paris with their children

Narges Mohammadi has spent more time in Iranian prisons than with her own children. On February 8, 2026, the 53-year-old Nobel Peace Prize laureate received yet another sentence: six years for 'gathering and collusion,' plus 18 months for 'propaganda,' plus two years of internal exile to a remote eastern province. The verdict came while she was on her sixth day of a hunger strike, detained in an intelligence ministry facility in Mashhad after being beaten during her arrest at a memorial service two months earlier.
