Jailed Iranian Nobel laureate urges action against 'oppression' of women

Jailed Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi on Monday urged the international community to act to end the "oppression" of women in Iran, two years after the start of a women-led protest movement.

"I call on international institutions and people worldwide... to take active action. I urge the United Nations to end its silence and inaction in the face of the devastating oppression and discrimination by theocratic and authoritarian governments against women by criminalizing gender apartheid," she said in a letter written in Tehran's Evin prison on Saturday and published by her foundation on Monday.
