Iranian Teen Left Brain Dead After Alleged Assault by Morality Police

TL;DR Summary
A 16-year-old girl in Iran, Armita Geravand, is reportedly brain dead after allegedly being attacked by morality police for violating the country's hijab law. State media aired security footage showing women dragging Geravand's limp body off a train, but her family claims she collapsed due to a blood pressure issue. Activists suspect she may have been pushed or attacked by the police. The incident has sparked demands for an independent investigation by the UN, as well as concerns of a repeat of the mass demonstrations that followed the death of Mahsa Amini, who was detained for improperly wearing the hijab.
