Description:

An Iranian woman who disobeyed the rigorous guidelines of Iran's Islamic dress code was beaten more than 70 times. She posted a graphic video that demonstrated the severity of her wounds. Masih Alinejad, an Iranian journalist and activist, described the startling image. Due to her refusal to wear the hijab, the unnamed woman was detained and given a 74-lash punishment. In the video, her serious injuries are plainly evident. "This video, sent by a woman from Tehran, shows her scars after being whipped for not wearing the hijab," Alinejad wrote in her post. This harsh reality serves as a reminder of Iran's repressive system for women.
