Shocking footage has emerged,
showing the moment a teenager was thrown to the ground by an Iranian police
officer because she was not wearing a hijab.
In a video shared by journalist
Masih Alinejad, the girl is seen walking through Shahr-e-Rey when a man in
uniform asks her to stop. However, she continues to walk.
The officer then drags her to the
ground and punches someone else on the chin for trying to help the woman.
Iran’s military police enforce
strict Shariah law, including ensuring that women’s hair is covered in public.
But women have begun fighting back in recent years by flouting the ban.
