I have always believed that the day will come when I write these words: My mother is free!

After more than 4 years of political imprisonment in the Islamic Republic of Iran, I hugged my mother Nahid Taghavi at the airport yesterday. This has always been my goal. The road there was long, hard and rocky. But along the way I've met people who became friends, some even family. I've seen endless suffering, sorrow and anger, but even more resilience, fighting spirit and determination. First of all, I've learned that the road is worthwhile.

While I am overjoyed that my mother is safe at home, I remember all those who are still trapped behind the high prison walls. For them, the road is worth going on. For Pakhshan Azizi. For Verisheh Moradi. And for all political prisoners. We are not free until everyone is free.

I thank each and every person who has requested: FREENAHID over the last 4 years. You've done it!

NAHID IS FREE.

Nahid Taghavi was arrested in October 2020 while living in Iran. The charges against her included acting against national security, propagandizing against the regime, and participating in the establishment and management of an illegal group. After seven months of solitary confinement and interrogation, the Revolutionary Court sentenced her to 10 years and eight months in prison. She endured many physical problems after she was seventy years old in prison.

After her mother was arrested, Mariam Claren made great efforts to free her mother by forming the Free.Nahid Campaign...

Happy freedom. Hoping for the release of all political prisoners in Iran
