LONDON: EU chiefs on Thursday called on Iran to release human rights lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh and condemned the regime for executing dissidents.

Concern has been mounting over the health of Sotoudeh, 57, who was initially jailed in 2018 and then thrown back behind bars this month after being allowed out for a few weeks in November.
