The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
On August 2nd, Farangis Mazlum, the mother of Iranian atheist political prisoner Soheil Arabi, was brought to the Judgment Enforcement Unit of the Evin Prison in Iran. She will serve an 18month custodial sentence for speaking out against her son’s arrest and the torture he experienced in prison. Her son Soheil was first arrested in November 2013 for allegedly insulting the Prophet Muhammad on his Facebook post. He was eventually released on November 16th, 2021, yet he has been sentenced to an additional two years of “internal exile.” Mazlum herself was first arrested on July 22nd, 2019, by Iran’s Intelligence Ministry agents after speaking out against her son’s imprisonment and giving interviews to foreign media. Later she was also charged with “assembly and collusion with the intention of committing crime through contacting the People’s Mojahedin Organization (also known as MEK, an Iranian antiregime terrorist organization)” and “disseminating propaganda against the state and in favor of dissident groups.” The continued yearslong judicial harassment of Farangis Mazlum despite her frail health condition, including a recent stroke in July, has been condemned as a blatant attempt to silence her outspoken son Soheil Arabi and her own burgeoning activism. While speaking to IranWire, Arabi talked about how his mother became a civil rights champion after he was arrested. “She went from being a mother to a fighter,” Arabi said. In 2020, Farangis Mazlum gave an interview to Atheist Republic, despite the great risk of doing so. You can watch full interview with this courageous woman here, with English captions
