Iran limiting jailed Nobel winner Narges Mohammadi's medical care over hijab refusal: Family

IndiaTimes Thursday, 2 November 2023
Mohammadi has subsequently announced she would not under any circumstances wear a hijab, the head covering which has been obligatory for women in public spaces since shortly after Iran's 1979 Islamic revolution. Prison authorities in response have refused to transfer Mohammadi, who suffers from heart and lung conditions, to a hospital outside Evin, her family said in a statement, warning her health and life were at risk. The scan showed two veins with severe blockages and high lung pressure, with a coronary angiogram and lung scan urgently needed.
