The West turned its gaze away from Iran. The cruelties continued

More than 30 years ago, the regime in Tehran tried to silence me. My heart aches for the young women imprisoned and still suffering in Iran today, Nasrin Parvaz writes.

“Prisoners have been tortured into confessing, and if physical torture didn’t work, interrogators would threaten their families. Many women have reported being raped whilst in prison,” writes civil rights activist Nasrin Parvaz.

    Yet, we need to continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with the women and people demanding the basic rights we take for granted and enjoy every single day.

    We must try and save the lives of those sentenced to death by raising the political cost of their executions and making sure that those languishing in prisons are released.

    I’m calling on the international community and media to keep shining a spotlight on my country to demand that the regime stops using torture immediately.
