Elaheh Mohammadi

Elaheh Mohammadi (Persian: الهه محمدی; born 9 May 1987) is an Iranian journalist who reports on society and women's issues for the daily Ham-Mihan newspaper.

[2][3][4][5] Mohammadi had traveled to Saqqez for Iran's Ham-Mihan newspaper to cover the funeral of Mahsa Amini, 22, who had spent three days in a coma following her arrest by Tehran's notorious morality police and died on 16 September.

[7][1][8] On 4 November 2022, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards and Intelligence ministry issued a joint statement, filled with unsubstantiated claims, accusing Mohammadi and Niloofar Hamedi, another female journalist, of being foreign agents engaged in “multi-dimensional wars” organized by “Western and Zionist intelligence agencies… to carry out serious and uninterrupted planning with the aim of influencing different social layers, especially in areas related to women”.

[10] On 11 August 2024, Mohammadi's lawyers announced that the journalist had been acquitted by the Court of Appeal of the charge of "collaborating with a hostile foreign government, the United States."

[11] On 11 February 2025, it was reported that Mohammadi had been pardoned by Iran's top judicial authority alongside Niloofar Hamedi on the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s approval.
