WPF extends heartfelt sympathies to journalist Saba Azarpeik, unjustly imprisoned, who suffered a miscarriage and lost her unborn child following a grueling 9-hour court session.

WPF vehemently opposes the Iranian regime's recent actions against journalists Saba Azarpeik and Kimia Fathizadeh.

Journalist Saba Azarpeik was reportedly released on bail on February 8. She was arrested illegally by The Iranian Cyber Police (FATA) on February 7 for unclear reasons. The Coalition For Women In Journalism (CFWIJ) welcomes the release of Saba. However, we demand the Iranian regime to end intimidating journalists solely for doing their job.

Journalist Saba Azarpeik was reportedly arrested by The Iranian Cyber Police (FATA) on February 7 for unknown reasons. The Coalition For Women In Journalism (CFWIJ) is utterly dismayed by these unsettling developments in the country. We demand Saba’s release immediately. Journalism is not a crime.
