Heartbreaking news from Iran.
TWO KURDISH WOMEN FLOGGED AND IMPRISONED IN IRAN
Two Kurdish women, Neda Dadejani and Setayesh Sarabi, detained during Iran’s January 2026 nationwide protests, have now been flogged and sent to prison.
According to reports, the women were summoned to the court in Qorveh supposedly to “provide explanations.”
But the moment they arrived, they were detained. Their flogging sentences were carried out on the spot. Then they were transferred directly to the women’s ward of Sanandaj Central Prison to begin serving their prison sentences.
They had previously requested permission to serve their sentences with electronic ankle monitors. They reportedly never received an answer.
Neda is an artist and puppeteer who had won an award for her work at a theater festival for people with disabilities.
She used her hands to make puppets and bring them to life.
The Islamic Republic used its hands to put lashes on her body.
This is Iran in 2026: women are summoned to court, flogged for protesting, and taken straight to prison.
Their names are Neda Dadejani and Setayesh Sarabi.
