HRANA – The death sentence against Arghavan Fallahi, a 24-year-old political prisoner held in Evin Prison, has been upheld by the Supreme Court.

According to HRANA, the Supreme Court has upheld the death sentence issued against Arghavan Fallahi.

According to information received by HRANA, Fallahi was sentenced to death in July of this year on the charge of baghi (armed rebellion) by Judge Abolghasem Salavati, head of Branch 15 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court.

Following Israel’s attack on Evin Prison in June 2025, Fallahi was initially transferred to the Greater Tehran Prison and subsequently to Qarchak Prison in Varamin. She was later transferred back to Evin Prison.

Previously, an informed source told HRANA regarding the political prisoner’s situation: “Following her arrest, Ms. Fallahi spent some time in Wards 209 and 241 of Evin Prison, under the supervision of the Judiciary’s Intelligence Protection Organization. During this period, she was subjected to severe psychological torture, and attempts were made to extract forced confessions from her in connection with the assassinations of two judges, Mohammad Moghiseh and Ali Razini.”

Arghavan Fallahi was arrested by security forces in late January 2025 and transferred to the Ministry of Intelligence’s detention facility, known as Ward 209 of Evin Prison.

Fallahi had previously been arrested alongside her father by security forces in November 2022 and was later transferred to Evin Prison. She was subsequently sentenced by Branch 26 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Iman Afshari, to two years in prison on charges of “assembly and collusion” and “propaganda against the regime.”

She was released from Evin Prison after completing her sentence.

HRANA News Agency – Arghavan Fallahi, a Tehran resident, remains in legal limbo in Evin Prison more than three months after her arrest.

A source close to her family confirmed to HRANA: “Ms. Fallahi has been held in Evin Prison for over three months without clarity on her case. She has been under interrogation during this time, and the charges against her remain unknown. She is allowed one phone call with her family per month and has not been granted in-person visits.”

Arghavan Fallahi was arrested by security forces in late January 2025 and transferred to the Ministry of Intelligence’s detention facility, known as Ward 209 of Evin Prison.

Fallahi had previously been arrested in November 2022 alongside her father by security forces and later transferred to Evin Prison. She was sentenced by Branch 26 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Iman Afshari, to two years in prison on charges of “assembly and collusion” and “propaganda against the regime.” She was released after serving her sentence.

In 2024 alone, HRANA published 938 reports of prolonged detention of political prisoners and prisoners of conscience by the Iranian regime’s security and judicial apparatus. These extended detentions are often marked by solitary confinement, withholding information from families about the detainees’ whereabouts and condition, lengthy interrogation periods, and unclear charges and judicial procedures—forming a pattern of systematic abuse and due process violations.
