Iranian rights activist Shirin Ebadi has vowed not to cave in to pressure from the Islamic republic despite the seizure of her bank accounts and Nobel medal, a report said on Friday.
"Iranian officials want to put pressure on me in this way but it is not working," Ebadi said, according to the website of Radio Farda, a Farsi-language service that broadcasts from Europe to Iran.
"If the Islamic republic is angry about the publication of human rights reports, they would do better by improving the human rights situation," she told the US-funded, Prague-based radio.
