At the same time, news sources reported the transfer of Maryam Sadat Yahyavi, a Green Movement activist, to the women's section of Evin Prison to serve a one-year prison sentence. According to Sediqeh Voseghi's Instagram page, the reason for her summons has not been disclosed. Voseghi is an Islamic scholar who removed her hijab during the protests following the death of Mahsa Amini in the custody of the morality police, which is known as the 'Women, Life, Freedom' movement. According to the Telegram channel 'Kalameh', Yahyavi is heading to Evin to serve her one-year prison sentence while suffering from cancer, which has previously delayed the execution of her sentence. Reports indicate that she was initially sentenced to nine years in prison by the Islamic Revolutionary Court presided over by Judge Salavati on charges such as 'propaganda against the regime', which was later reduced to one year on appeal. Yahyavi was a member of the 'Green Movement' room on the social media platform 'Clubhouse', which was shut down in the summer of 2021 due to pressure and threats from the Islamic Republic's security apparatus. Voseghi: A comprehensive front for change should be formed inside and outside the country. Voseghi: I protest against the numerous injustices faced by Bahai compatriots.
