Three women’s right activists from Iran were detained as they were about to leave the country for partaking in an educational workshop in India.
Mansureh Shojai, Talat Taghinia and Farnaz Seifi were arrested at Teheran’s Imam Khomeini airport on Saturday morning.
The three women were involved in a recent campaign dubbed ‘One Million Signatures’ aimed at changing Iran’s ‘discriminatory laws’ for women, by collecting signatures, online and in person.
