Fariba Adelkhah (born 25 April 1959) is a French-Iranian anthropologist and academic at Sciences Po who was detained in Iran from 2019 until 2023.

Early life and career

Born in Tehran, Adelkhah studied in France, first at Université Strasbourg II and then at the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences.[1] In 1990, she obtained a "very honourable" mention for her Ph.D. thesis on women in Iran, "an anthropological approach of post-revolutionary Iran: the case of Islamic women" (Une approche anthropologique de l'Iran post-révolutionnaire. Le cas des femmes islamiques), with Jean-Pierre Digard as her advisor. Since 2004, she has been a Research Director at the Fondation nationale des sciences politiques. As a researcher at the Centre for International Research of Paris Institute of Political Studies (Sciences Po), she authored a number of publications on Iran and Afghanistan.[2] She is a member of the scientific council of the periodical Iranian Studies and of Revue des mondes musulmans et de la Méditerranée.[3]

Imprisonment in Iran

On 14 July 2019, Persian-language media from outside of Iran reported that she had been arrested in Iran.[4] Her arrest would date back to 7 June, when she last connected to her WhatsApp account. The Iranian Human Rights website Gozaar stated that she had been arrested by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and was being detained at Evin Prison.[2] French authorities stated that Adelkhah was being denied access to consular assistance,[5] and are demanding access to their citizen.[6][7][8]

In June 2019, Adelkhah's Sciences Po colleague Roland Marchal was also arrested in Iran when he came to visit her.[9] On 7 February 2020, their lawyer said the two had petitioned prison authorities to allow them to get married.[10] Marchal and Adelkhah were reportedly to go on trial on 3 March 2020 but it was postponed due to COVID-19 pandemic in Iran.[11] Marchal was released on 20 March 2020 as part of a prisoner swap, but no verdict was reached on the case of Adelkhah.[12]

On 16 May 2020, the 15th Chamber of the Tehran Court sentenced Adelkhah to five years' imprisonment for conspiring against national security, and one year for propaganda against the state.[13] During her trial, she was represented by Iranian lawyer Saeid Dehghan. Although Adelkhah is French-Iranian, Iran does not recognise this dual citizenship, and so continues to deny her access to French consular services.

Sciences Po is in contact with the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs to campaign and raise awareness for Adelkhah's release.[14]

On 12 January 2022, Adelkhah's Paris-based support group, announced that her house arrest was over and she had been re-imprisoned at Evin.[15] She was released from Evin prison again on 10 February 2023.[16][17]

In October 2023, Adelkhah returned to Paris and was welcomed at Sciences Po on October 20.[18]
