🇫🇷🇮🇷🇵🇸 A French-Iranian woman arrested and imprisoned in France over social media posts denouncing the genocide in Gaza
Mahdieh Esfandiari Jaliseh, a French-Iranian citizen born on February 24, 1986, and residing in Lyon since 2018, was arrested by French police on February 28, 2025. She has reportedly been held at Fresnes Prison since March 2.
Her arrest appears to be linked to social media posts in which she denounced the #genocide in #Gaza and expressed support for the Palestinian people. She is reportedly being accused of glorifying terrorism.
It was her relatives, concerned after losing contact with her, who alerted the Iranian authorities. In response, the Iranian MFA has requested clarification on the exact reasons for her arrest. As of now, the French FM has not provided a clear answer.
In #France, as in many Western countries, solidarity with the Palestinian people increasingly appears to be criminalized, in disregard of the fundamental principles of freedom of expression.
