Leila Abolhasani, one of the detainees from the protests of January 2024, has been sentenced to death on charges of "moharebeh" (waging war against God), and her case is currently under review by the Supreme Court following an appeal against the verdict.

Leila Abolhasani, approximately 43 years old and a mother of two teenagers, has been held in the Dowlatabad prison in Isfahan since January 18, 2024.

A source has stated that Abolhasani was arrested on January 18 in Shahinshahr while taking photos of a fire at one of the "Ofogh Kourosh" stores.

According to this source, the judiciary has accused her of being involved in setting fire to this store; an accusation that has led to the issuance of a death sentence against her.

Currently, the Supreme Court is reviewing her appeal against the death sentence.
Leila Abolhasani has spent over seven months in Dowlatabad prison in Isfahan since her arrest.
