Iranian Nobel laureate Mohammadi hit with extended seven-and-a-half-year prison sentence

Nobel Peace Prize recipient Narges Mohammadi was handed seven-and-a-half years in a Mashhad court (six years for 'gathering and collusion' and 1.5 years for 'propaganda'), plus a two-year travel ban and two-year exile, with supporters calling the hearing a sham; she has health concerns, a hunger strike, and the total time she has been ordered to spend in prison is now about 44 years.
