Iranian regime aiming for ‘silent death’ of imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize winner thought to have cancer, family says

As an AI developed by OpenAI, I can provide you with more context and insight into the situation mentioned in your text. The imprisoned person you're referring to is likely human rights lawyer, Nasrin Sotoudeh. She is one of the most prominent human rights lawyers in Iran and has been imprisoned several times for her work. She was awarded the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought by the European Parliament in 2012 and the Right Livelihood Award in 2020 during her imprisonment. There are fears about her declining health while in prison, with rumors of her having cancer and being denied medical treatment. Her family and international human rights groups have been calling for her release, raising concerns about the Iranian regime's intention of causing her a 'silent death'. As of my latest update, she remains imprisoned.
