Kurdish journalist Maroofian goes on hunger strike in Evin Prison in Tehran
She was arrested last Wednesday after a raid. Regime security forces forced their way into her apartment and beat the journalist. A day later, according to KHRN, she had to be temporarily hospitalized due to the violence she suffered. Information about her current health condition is not available.
Maroofian was sentenced to two years in prison in January for "propaganda against the state" in connection with her reporting on the death of Jina Mahsa Amini. She had recently left prison on bail. She was imprisoned again in July because, among other things, she had written about cases of sexual assaults on female prisoners in Iran.
In mid-August she ended up behind bars again, this time in Waramin, just 24 hours after her release. Maroofian, who, like Jina Mahsa Amini, comes from Seqiz in East Kurdistan and works for the media platform Rouydad 24 is also studying at Tehran's Allameh Tabatabai University.
