When the Nobel Prizes were presented at Oslo’s City Hall, Norway, on Sunday, December 10, 2023, Narges Mohammadi, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this year, was absent.<\/p>\n
Nargis was thousand of miles away, in an Iranian prison, imprisoned by Tehran’s tyrannical ayatollahs for her campaign against the oppression of women in the so-called Islamic republic and the fight for human rights and freedom for all.<\/p>\n
The 51 year old was sentenced to 16 years’ imprisonment for establishing a human rights movement for the abolition of the death penalty in May 2016.<\/p>\n
Though she was released in 2020, Nargis was sent back to prison in 2021.<\/p>\n
Her teenage twins, Kiana and Ali Rahmani, accepted the Nobel Peace Prize on her behalf.<\/p>\n
