Narges Mohammadi, who has won the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize, has for years been a prominent human rights figure in Iran.
She was awarded the prize for her fight against the oppression of women in the country, with the head of the Nobel committee calling her a "freedom fighter".
She has also tirelessly campaigned for the abolition of the death penalty in Iran, which has one of the highest execution rates in the world.
Despite being in jail almost continuously since 2010,
Ms Mohammadi has managed to publicise abuses even from inside prison.
