    From Iranian jail to reporting on the Lionesses - our journo’s incredible story

    16/03/2026 | 18 mins.
    What fate awaits the Lionesses who are returning to Iran? Iranian-Australian journalist Shokoofeh Azar is hoping for the best – that the women will be forced into a humiliating public confession - but won’t be imprisoned, tortured or executed.
    Shookofeh has personal experience of how the Islamic Republic treats women. After several arrests and stints in prison in Iran, Shookofeh came to Australia on a people-smuggling vessel, via Christmas Island - a path many Iranians have taken in their desperation to be free. Now, she works for The Australian.
    See the video of this interview on our YouTube channel and read some of Shookofeh’s work here:
