Iran’s Ebadi says threats against her increasing
Published: 04.14.08, 13:18 / Israel News

Nobel Peace Prize laureate and human rights lawyer Shirin Ebadi said on Monday the number of threats made against her and her family had increased in recent months.

Ebadi, an outspoken critic of the Islamic Republic’s human rights record, sent a letter to the head of the Iranian police with copies of three anonymous handwritten warnings she said she had received. “Threats against my life and security and those of my family, which began some time ago, have intensified,” wrote Ebadi, 60, who won the Nobel prize in 2003 for her work in defending human rights.
