Tragic Death of Iranian Teen Armita Geravand Sparks Outrage and Investigation

Armita Geravand, an Iranian teenage girl who was injured in a subway incident in Tehran while not wearing a headscarf, has died after being in a coma for weeks. Her injury and subsequent death threaten to reignite popular anger and protests against Iran's mandatory headscarf law. The exact circumstances of the incident remain unclear, but activists allege that Geravand may have been pushed or attacked for not wearing the hijab. Calls for an independent international investigation have been made, citing the Iranian government's history of concealing the truth. The incident comes amid renewed criticism of Iran's treatment of women and its enforcement of the mandatory hijab law.
