According to the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, Amoushahi was taken from her home during a raid by security forces in the early hours of Saturday, May 25. She has since been transferred to an unknown location.

Amoushahi, who suffers from thyroid cancer, now faces a severe health risk due to her lack of access to essential medications. 

Her latest detention raises significant concerns about her well-being, given her medical condition.

Amoushahi’s previous arrest took place on July 11, 2023. 

She was subsequently held in Dowlatabad prison in Isfahan and charged in a case processed by Branch 13 of the General and Revolutionary Courts of Isfahan. 

After spending over a month in detention, she was released on bail on August 14, 2023, pending the completion of legal proceedings.
