Dr. Maryam Arvin was a dedicated human rights lawyer from Sirjan, Kerman, who became a symbol of legal courage during the "Woman, Life, Freedom" movement. In November 2022, she was arrested for providing legal defense to protesters, including many local teenagers. While held in Sirjan Prison, she reportedly went on a hunger strike to protest her detention. Although pressured to sign a repentance letter in exchange for her release, she was eventually released on bail on December 14, 2022. Tragically, Maryam died under suspicious circumstances in February 2023, just two months after leaving prison. Reports and testimonies from her family indicate that her death was the result of forced drug injections and toxic substances administered to her while she was in state custody. Her family, including her mother and brother Vahid, have continued to seek justice and honor her memory in the years following her passing. Maryam is remembered by the Iranian legal community as a lawyer who remained faithful to her professional oath of honor. Her grave in Kerman, often decorated with red and white flowers, serves as a site of remembrance for those who view her as a martyr for freedom and justice.

دکتر مریم آروین، وکیل دادگستری و مدافع حقوق بشر اهل سیرجان، یکی از چهره‌های برجسته ایستادگی در جریان خیزش «زن، زندگی، آزادی» بود. او در آبان ۱۴۰۱ به دلیل بر عهده گرفتن دفاع حقوقی از معترضان، از جمله نوجوانان بازداشت شده، توسط نهادهای امنیتی بازداشت شد. مریم در دوران حبس در زندان سیرجان در اعتراض به وضعیت خود دست به اعتصاب غذا زد و سرانجام در ۲۳ آذر ۱۴۰۱ با قرار وثیقه آزاد شد. در بهمن ماه ۱۴۰۱، تنها دو ماه پس از آزادی، مریم آروین به طرز مشکوکی جان باخت. بر اساس گزارش‌ها و اظهارات صریح خانواده، جان‌باختن او ناشی از تزریقات اجباری و خوراندن مواد سمی در دوران بازداشت بوده است. این ضایعه موجی از اندوه و خشم را در میان جامعه حقوقی و فعالان مدنی برانگیخت. یاد مریم آروین به عنوان وکیلی که پایبندی به سوگند حرفه‌ای خود را با جانش امضا کرد، همواره گرامی داشته می‌شود. مزار او در کرمان که توسط خانواده و مادر دادخواهش با گل‌های سرخ و سفید فرش می‌شود، به نمادی از پافشاری بر عدالت و آزادی تبدیل شده است.
