A British-Iranian woman, Nasrin Roshan, 62, says she was brutally beaten and tortured by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). In public statements reported by outlets, she calls on the UK government to take action similar to measures taken by the United States and some European countries. Roshan and others are urging the UK to proscribe the IRGC as a terrorist organization, arguing this would help prevent similar abuses and improve safety for people in the UK who are concerned about IRGC activity. The reports describe Roshan’s account of mistreatment and present her position as part of a wider campaign seeking legal designation of the IRGC. The coverage does not provide additional verification details within the excerpts, but it consistently frames her allegations as the basis for her appeal to the UK. The UK government’s stance on whether it will adopt such a designation is not established in the provided text.
