As of the time of this report, there is no information available from the detaining authority regarding the reasons for her arrest, her place of detention, or the charges against her. This student activist was also arrested during the nationwide protests following the death of Mahsa Amini in front of Shahid Madani University in Azerbaijan and was released from Tabriz prison on December 7, 2022, after posting bail of 250 million tomans. Armita Paveer is a student of cellular and molecular biology at Shahid Madani University of Azerbaijan. Previously, she had written on her Twitter: 'Very briefly and effectively: I went to court, they said we called you to say you have been pardoned, write a statement of remorse and a commitment letter according to the directive, we will close the case... I rejected it - I came back after being pardoned, my final verdict will be announced today or tomorrow. You may see my death, but you will never see me bowing my head.'
