Fariba Dalir, a Christian believer, was sent to Evin Prison to serve her sentence.

Fariba Dalir, a Christian believer, was taken to Evin Prison on Saturday, April 17, to serve her sentence. Ms. Dalir was previously sentenced to two years in prison by the Tehran Revolutionary Court.

According to HRANA News Agency, citing Article 18, Fariba Dalir was sent to Evin Prison to serve her sentence.

In November of this year, he was sentenced to five years in prison by the Tehran Revolutionary Court on charges of acting against national security by establishing and running a Christian church. The sentence was later commuted to two years in prison.

Ms. Dalir was arrested on July 18, 1402, in a joint case with five other Christian believers, and was released some time later after posting bail.

It is worth noting that despite the fact that Christians are recognized as a religious minority by law, the security services follow the issue of Muslims converting to Christianity with particular sensitivity and deal with activists in this field with force.

The treatment of Christian believers in Iran is taking place despite the fact that, according to Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 18 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, everyone has the right to freedom of religion and to change their religion with conviction, as well as the freedom to manifest it, individually or in community with others and in public or in private.
