HRANA – Parisa Kamali Ardakani, a political prisoner held in Yazd Prison, is now on the seventh day of her hunger strike. She began the strike in protest against the authorities’ refusal to consolidate her sentences.

A source familiar with the Kamali family confirmed the news to HRANA, saying: “Ms. Kamali submitted a request for the consolidation of her sentences a long time ago, but prison authorities did not process it. For this reason, on November 24 she began a hunger strike. In response to her protest, prison officials transferred her to a solitary cell and cut off her contact with her family. She remained in solitary confinement until November 29 and was then returned to the ward. Due to suffering from toxic thyroid disease, Ms. Kamali is currently in poor physical condition.”

Parisa Kamali was arrested on April 29, 2024, in Isfahan and transferred to Dolatabad Prison in the same city. She was later sentenced by Branch 1 of the Isfahan Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Tavakoli, to a total of seven years and nine months in prison, two years of exile on the charge of “destruction of public property,” and to imprisonment on charges of ‘insulting the Supreme Leader’ and ‘membership in anti-regime groups.’

She was transferred from Dolatabad Prison in Isfahan to Yazd Prison in 2025. Parisa Kamali Ardakani, aged approximately 39, is from Abadan, married, and a geography student.
