Prominent defence lawyer Nasrine Sotoudeh, after a summer of harassment and raids by Iranian authorities, was detained on 4 September. The charges against her are still far from clear, but she is to appear in court next Monday.

Meanwhile, Iranian officials have limited or denied visits to Sotoudeh, the mother of two children by her family and lawyer. She has gone on hunger strike twice, with her current dry fast lasting more than a week.
