Shanaz Sadeghifar left the Kurdistan Freedom Party (PAK), together with her daughter, Aynaz Zare, and returned to Iran. They were both arrested by Baneh border guards upon return to Iran. After inquiry from the IRGC in Urmia, it became clear that they had received safe conduct and were thus released to go to Urmia. When in Urmia, they went to IRGC’s intelligence office. They were told to go home and come back the day after to give explanations. When they did so, they were both arrested and kept for about two months in a detention center run by IRGC’s intelligence department in Urmia.

Shahnaz Sadeghifar and Aynaz Zare staged a hunger strike. According to Kurdistan Human Rights Network, a 15-year sentence for Ms Sadeghifar and the longtime unclear conditions for Ms Zare in prison is what led to the hunger strike. Since there is no report on the hunger strike either continuing or coming to an end, it was probably a short strike.

She was under 18 at the time of arrest and has so far been denied a lawyer chosen by herself.
