NEW0022 | Mar 22, 2021 | Recommendations | Special Rapporteur - Human Rights Defenders | Feb 1, 2017 | The Special Rapporteur notes that numerous communications sent during this reporting period relate to imprisoned human rights defenders who are serving long sentences for their peaceful activities in defence of human rights. The Special Rapporteur acknowledges receipt of the substantive response from the Government to the communication dated19 April 2016 regarding the alleged arbitrary detention and charges issued against human rights defender and journalist, Ms. Narges Mohammadi. The Special Rapporteur further acknowledges the two detailed responses received to the communication dated 22 July 2016 regarding the alleged arbitrary arrests and detentions as well as denial of adaquate medical services to Mr. Abdolfattah Soltani, Mr. Arash Sadeghi,and Ms. Narges Mohammadi. The Special Rapporteur appreciates the information received by the Government that the prison charges the human rights defenders are facing have been reduced through implementation of article 134 of the Islamic Penal Code and selective pardons. The sentences of Mr. Soltani were commuted from 18 years imprisonment to ten years imprisonment, while those of Ms. Mohammadi were reduced from 16 years to ten years and finally Mr. Sadeghi's sentences were commuted from an alleged 19 years sentence (including the application of a suspended sentence from a previous case) to seven and a half years.

As such, he urges the Government to take all necessary action to release the imprisoned defenders. | Partially Implemented |
