In January 2016, Ekhtesari told the Associated Press that she and Moosavi had fled Iran. For safety reasons, she declined to provide any more details.

On 12 October 2015, the sentence against Ekhtesari was declared. She was to be lashed 99 times and to serve 11.5 years imprisonment. Ekthesari and Moosavi were both sentenced for crimes against the Iranian government, for immoral behaviour and blasphemy. In Ekhtesari's case, her sentence includes seven years for "insulting the sacred", three years for the claimed publication of indecent photos online and eighteen months for spreading propaganda critical of the Iranian government. The 99 lashes are punishment for "illicit relations".

On 13 January 2014, Svenska PEN (the Swedish PEN), Sveriges Författarförbund (The Swedish Writers' Union) and Göteborgs poesifestival protested to demand the release of Ekhtesari and other Iranian prisoners. The protest took place outside Iran's embassy in Lidingö. On 14 January 2014, Ekthesari and Mehdi Moosavi were both released on bail.

She was the chief editor of the postmodern magazine Hamin farad bud which has since been cancelled. Ekhtesari participated in a project called En motståndsrörelse på mitt skrivbord where six Persian and six Swedish poets met. It was documented by the magazine Kritiker in 2013.

In 2013, Ekhtesari was among the invited poets who appeared at the Gothenburg poetry festival. After her visit in Sweden she was arrested when she was about to travel to Turkey together with poet Mehdi Moosavi and imprisoned at the Evin prison in Tehran. Her Facebook account was hacked and her blog was closed.

Ekhtesari belongs in the literary movement called "postmodern ghasel", which stems from the older way to write poems called ghasel, but reflects on contemporary society. Her first collection of poems called Yek bahse feministi ghabl az pokhtane sibzaminiha was published in 2010. It was later rectracted and the publication ended when it was discovered that she had filled in censored words by hand before the publication of her work. Rakhs roye sime khardar, her second book, is still waiting on approval to be published by the Iranian government as of October 2015.
