why the protest started
Protests erupted in Iran following the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in September from injuries allegedly sustained in Iranian police custody. Mahsa Amini was arrested during a visit to the capital Tehran for allegedly not wearing the hijab properly. Following the death of Mahsa Amini, anti-hijab protests spread like wild fire in Iran and turned into the country’s largest civil uprising. In Iran, the controversy regarding Hijab has been going on continuously for the past several months. The government of Iran has given death sentence to many people for their involvement in this controversy.
