The detention of Christian convert “Maliheh Nazari” continues with her transfer to Qarchak prison
Mrs. Maliheh Nazari, a Christian convert and a member of the Tehran Women’s House Church, was arrested three weeks ago and because of a very high bail was transferred from Evin Prison toQarchak Varamin Prison is a remote and infamous prison in the deserts southeast of Tehran that is virtually inaccessible to the families of female prisoners. The prison is intended for women with criminal records such as robbery, murder and drugs. But in order to deny the existence of ideological and political prisoners, the judicial authorities transfer these prisoners to this detention center, which has non-standard living and health conditions
Placing women with political and religious statuses among women prisoners with common and dangerous crimes is a form of leverage against them
Maliheh Nazari, a 46-year-old Christian prisoner, is a member of the “one-Hearted” House Church in Tehran. She has a husband and two sons, aged 22 and 15. Mrs. Nazari’s eldest son has been suffering from cancer for two years
“Maliheh Nazari” was attacked and arrested by plainclothes agents on Tuesday, June 30, 2020, in the presence of her husband and sick child at her home. Security forces of the Revolutionary Guards Intelligence Agency also searched her house in a panic and raid, and confiscated some of her personal belongings, including computers, cell phones, a number of books and personal items
Mrs. Maliheh Nazari’s husband and children, under pressure from security and intelligence agents, have so far refused to provide any information about her, and Mohabat News’ attempts to contact the husband and children of this novice Christian woman has so far been unsuccessful
It should be noted that the “One-Hearted” church is a house church for Christian women believers in Tehran. This group of women, which includes dozens of middle-aged women converts, have no activity other than praying and worshiping God. Security officials so far have not given a specific reason for detaining several attendees of this church who have been detained in recent weeks, including Somayeh Sadegh, Masoumeh Qasemi, Maliheh Nazari and Mahkameh (Hengameh)
It is worth mentioning that Christian converts Somayeh (Sonia) Sadegh and her mother Masoumeh Qasemi have already been released from Evin Prison on bail until their trial. the Women’s Prison in Qarchak, Varamin
While security agents and the investigator of Maliheh Nazari’s case promised her children that they can visit her in Evin Prison, prison officials on the morning of Wednesday, July 22, 2020, without any prior notice transferred Maliheh from Evin Prison to Qarchak Prison, one of the most notorious prisons in Iran
The arrest and transfer of this novice Christian woman took place in a situation where so far her family’s attempts to introduce a lawyer to the “Shahid Moghaddes” court located in Evin Prison have been fruitless, and no lawyer has been able to investigate her case and be aware of the charges against Mrs. Nazari
According to sources familiar with Mohabat News, the ” Shahid Moghaddes ” court has set a “three Billion Toman” ($137,000) bail for her temporary release, which is unbelievable! Maliheh’s family were not able to provide this amount. It seems that the issuance of such a heavy bail by the judicial authorities is to create obstacles for Maliheh’s family, and since the judge knew that this amount was not easy to obtain, the detention of this Christian convert will continue
