According to the Committee of Human Rights Reporters, Asal Esmailzadeh was arrested on Sunday night while returning home.
After inspecting her residence and confiscating a number of her personal possessions, security forces took the activist to an unknown location. The forces said the reason for her arrest was her “taking part in illegal assemblies.”
