Arab Times – Whereabouts of Iranian human rights lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh unknown 12 days after arrest
Concerns are mounting over the whereabouts of prominent Iranian human rights lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh, 12 days after her arrest, according to the human rights website HRANA. The report said Sotoudeh has had only one brief phone call with her family since being detained.
During the call, she reportedly said she was arrested by agents of Iran’s Intelligence Ministry but did not disclose her location or where she is currently being held. Her family has since contacted judicial and security authorities in an attempt to obtain information about her detention.
However, HRANA reported that officials told the family her name does not appear in any judicial registration system, raising further concerns about her legal status and condition.
