Iran sentences imprisoned Nobel laureate Narges Mohammadi

A court in Iran has slapped imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi with an additional sentence of 15 months for allegedly spreading propaganda against the Islamic Republic,.
According to a post on Instagram by Mohammadi ‘s family, the new sentence was handed down on Dec. 19.
It said Mohammadi had refused to attend the court sessions.
The verdict also said that after serving her time, Mohammadi would be banned from traveling abroad for two years and would be barred from membership in political and social groups and from having a mobile phone for the same duration.
The ruling also banishes her from the capital, Tehran, meaning she would likely have to serve the new sentence in another province in Iran.
Mohammadi is held in Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison where she is serving a 30-month sentence for spreading propaganda against the ruling system, disobediences in prison and defamation of authorities.
