Saeed Dehghan, defense lawyer Fariba Adelkhah and Gabriel Marshall, announced on Wednesday that they would not allow the couple to meet in Evin Prison. Is struck. According to the lawyer, the authorities in charge of the prison deny that the two had been officially registered for marriage in Iran, citing a ban on their visit.
Saeed Dehghan, a lawyer for Fariba Adelkhah, a prisoner in the women’s ward of Evin Prison, today announced Wednesday that prison officials were barred from meeting his client, his wife, Gabriel Marshall.
According to the lawyer, the authorities in Evin Prison appear to have prevented the official marriage from being registered in Iran, and Ms. Adelkhah has held a one-man sit-in in front of the women’s ward in Evin Prison.
Saeed Dehghan said: “Although the two have more than five years of living together in France, which according to the principles of Shari’a and humanity, this record confirms the practice of marriage and custom. Secondly, the marriage contract is “satisfying” and unlike divorce, it is not “ceremonial” and the conduct of the parties during this long period is beyond words and witnesses to the fulfillment of the contract. Coming alive to Professor Nasser Katouzian in his book “Civil Law in the Current Legal Order” insists that marriage between men and women and other laws can be traced back to marriage. ”
He continued: “On the other hand, verse 2 of Surat al-Baqara also emphasizes the agreement between men and women, and the first verse of Surah Ma’da also emphasizes the fulfillment of covenants and agreements. In addition, it is not the issue of “religious meeting” that is fundamentally related to marriage registration. Therefore, assuming that the authorities in prison do not accept any of these arguments and arguments, there should be no impediment to “face-to-face meetings”.
In the end, the lawyer pointed out that a practical solution could be formal registration of their marriage in the same prison.
It should be noted that in late July of this year, Ali Rabi’i, a spokesman for the Iranian government, had announced the arrest of Fariba Adel. The two-year-old citizen was arrested by security forces at his home in Tehran on June 6.

French researcher Roland Marshall was also arrested in June while traveling to Iran to meet Mrs Adelkhah.
