Mojdeh Falahi

Extra Bio Info:

Mojdeh Falahi is detained for her religious belief. 
In September 2024, Iranian security authorities arrested Falahi, a Christian convert, in Shiraz. Falahi reportedly went to the Shiraz prosecutor’s office at the request of a Christian friend who was arrested the day before, in order to provide him with some documents required for his release. However, once she arrived, Falahi was immediately detained and was held  on charges related to “illegal Christian activities.” The prosecutor’s office has denied requests from Falahi’s family to contact her since the arrest, and she has also been denied access to a lawyer. Falahi is reportedly being held in the Pelak-e 100 detention center, which is under the jurisdiction of Iran’s Intelligence Ministry. 

In July 2019, Falahi’s two older sisters were part of a group of eight Christian converts arrested in Bushehr.
