Iran’s Revolutionary Court has sentenced Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi to an additional 15 months in prison.

Ms Mohammadi who was not present at the latest trial and the verdict was issued in her absence, has already spent 12 years in jail serving multiple sentences.

She is accused of spreading propaganda against the Islamic Republic while in prison.

Her family condemned the verdict, saying this was her fifth conviction since March 2021.

The 51-year-old human rights activist has kept up her work despite the numerous threats and arrests.

She won the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize for her work fighting against the oppression of women in Iran.
