A female student was detained at Tehran’s Islamic Azad University last Saturday (November 2) after stripping down to her underwear in an act of protest that netizens labeled as “courageous.” The action followed her harassment by campus security forces, who sought to enforce the country’s mandatory hijab laws.
The altercation occurred inside the establishment’s science and research center. Eyewitnesses reported that guards attacked the student, “ripping off” her hoodie during a confrontation, which led to her furiously removing the rest of her clothes in defiance.
Viewers were left stunned after footage surfaced of the student being forcibly removed from the premises by a large number of security guards, who ganged up on the woman, violently shoving her into a car.
