Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi was in an Iranian hospital after a “catastrophic deterioration of her health,” including a “cardiac crisis,” a foundation run by her family said.
The secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, which awarded Mohammadi the 2023 prize, expressed concern on Thursday that the condition of the Iranian human rights activist was worsening after she had suffered a heart attack in prison.
Mohammadi, in her 50s, won the prize while in prison for her campaign to advance women’s rights and abolish the death penalty in Iran.
