Twenty days after detention, the fate of Kurdish civil activist Zahra Mohammadi remains unknown. Zahra Mohammadi, 28, was arrested on 23 May, 2019, by agents of the Intelligence Department of Sanandaj, capital of the Iranian Kurdistan Province. They raided her residence in Nayser Township in Sanandaj. Ms. Mohammadi’s family managed to visit her on 30 May, but have no new news of her ever since and are extremely concerned about her fate.
Zahra Mohammadi holds an M.S. degree in geopolitics from the University of Birjand, capital of South Khorasan Province. The Kurdish civil activist had been teaching Kurdish language for ten years in Sanandaj and its nearby villages.
Ms. Mohammadi is one of the founders of Nojin Social and Cultural Association which was founded in 2013. She was voted to direct the association.
