9:26Now PlayingThe Iranian regime began 2024 with intensified repression of women, exemplified by executing the sentence of Roya Heshmati to 74 lashes for defying compulsory hijab laws. During her punishment, Heshmati, a staunch critic of these laws, boldly stated, "I have come to receive my lashes; I won't cover up," when officials demanded her compliance. Her description of the punishment room as "a medieval torture chamber" with iron shackles poignantly illustrates the harsh realities faced by Iranian women. Additionally, Zeynab Khonyabpour received a two-year prison term for sharing photos without a hijab on social media. In a related case, Iranian singer Mehdi Yarrahi faced a sentence of two years and eight months in prison and 74 lashes for a song criticizing the hijab laws. Despite posting bail, Yarrahi's song 'Roosarito (Your Head Scarf)', which encourages women to defy the mandatory hijab, highlights the growing resistance against the regime's strict dress code and the crackdown on dissent in Iran.
