Iranwire – Two students from Allameh Tabatabai University in Tehran, Zia Nabawi and Hasti Amiri, have had their one-year prison sentences upheld in an appeals court.
The sentences were imposed following their involvement in protests against a series of chemical attacks in schools across Iran.
The initial court proceedings, which led to these sentences, took place at the Islamic Revolutionary Court in Teheran.
The two students had been engaged in protests against the poisoning of female students, and their cases are related to their participation in a student gathering at Allameh Tabatabai University on March 7.
In the aftermath of this gathering, both Nabawi and Amiri, along with Fereshteh Tousi, were summoned to the Evin Security Prosecutor’s Office for questioning.
According to reports from the United Students Telegram Channel, the fallout from the March 7 rally also resulted in at least 30 protesting students from Allameh University being banned from entering the campus.
Nabawi, a student of social sciences at Allameh University, has faced numerous challenges in his academic journey, because of his activism, including academic suspension and educational deprivation.
He had previously been arrested during the 2009 protests, spending nearly eight years in prison. Despite these hardships, he remains dedicated to his political activism.
