Mona Dabbagh

Mona Dabbagh, a Kurdish citizen from Sanandaj, was detained after being summoned to the enforcement branch of the Revolutionary Court in the city. She was transferred to the women's ward of the central prison in Sanandaj to serve a sentence of three years and six months. This facility is referred to by government media as a "correctional and rehabilitation centre." Dabbagh had been arrested during a 40-day conflict.

Previously, the First Branch of the Sanandaj Revolutionary Court sentenced Mona Dabbagh to three years and six months for "propaganda activities in support of the Zionist regime" and one year for "propaganda against the regime." This sentence was upheld by the provincial appeals court in September 2023.

Under the law of sentence aggregation, the most severe sentence, which is three years and six months, will be enforced for Mona Dabbagh.

Earlier, on 29 April 2026, Mona Dabbagh was arrested following a raid by intelligence forces at her workplace, allegedly for responding to the deputy prosecutor. She was transferred to the women's ward of the central prison in Sanandaj and was eventually released temporarily after 12 days on a bail of one billion tomans, pending the completion of court proceedings.
