Christian Convert Ghazal Marzban Sentenced to Over Nine Years in Prison
Ghazal Marzban Joreshari, a Christian convert and law graduate, has been sentenced to nine years and eight months in prison by the Tehran Revolutionary Court. Presided over by Judge Iman Afshari, the court convicted her of "propaganda against the state" and "assembly and collusion against national security." Arrested in January 2026, Marzban has long faced state persecution for her faith. Her imprisonment is particularly cruel as she has been the primary caregiver for her husband, who suffers from Parkinson's disease, and has previously endured systematic discrimination and denial of access to essential medical care for her family.
