Miss. Zeinab Jalalian, born in 1982, was arrested on March 10, 2008 at the age of 25 by the Kermanshah Intelligence Department in western Iran. In December 2009 she was sentenced to death on the charges of “moharebe (enmity against God) through membership in the PJAK group” in a court hearing that lasted only a few minutes behind closed doors, and without having any legal representation. The ruling issued was then upheld by the Supreme Court.
According to media reports, the court order issued against her on November 20, 2011 was decreased to life in jail. However, she has yet to be informed of this new ruling. Prior to this on the day she was arrested Jalalian was attacked by security agents on the Kermanshah-Sanandaj highway. She was transferred to an intelligence detention center in Kermanshah at gunpoint.
During the course of her detention Jalalian was for a period of one month placed under the most atrocious physical and psychological torture.
This Kurdish political prisoner was transferred to the “Correction Center of Diesel Abad Prison in Kermanshah” to humiliate her. She spent 7 years in this facility.
During her arrest and the severe torture afterwards Jalalian always suffered from problems in her vision and was in constant pain.
This political prisoner had prior to this been sent by officials to a private clinic in Kermanshah for medical treatment, and her family was forced to provide the expenses.
