Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what actions they are taking to encourage the government of Iran to respect freedom of religion or belief for Baha'is in that country, in particular with regard to the provision of medical attention for detained citizens, such as Mahvash Sabet; and what they are doing to secure the release of wrongfully detained Baha'i community leaders.

We condemn Iran's restrictions against Freedom of Religion or Belief. The continued systematic targeting of the Baha'i community, which includes unfair arrest and detention, land grabs, and denial of burial rights, is unacceptable. We are committed to working with international partners to hold Iran to account for its repression of the Bahai's, and other religious minorities, including at the UN Third Committee.
