Several people were detained this Sunday after the funeral of 16-year-old Iranian teenager Armita Gheravand, who died after allegedly being attacked by morality police in Tehran for not wearing a burqa.
Iranian media close to Iran’s opposition government reported that the funeral took place this Sunday at the Behesht Zahra cemetery in Tehran, despite his family’s apparent wishes to move the body to his hometown of Kermanshah, a Kurdish-majority area. .
A large contingent of security forces was present at the funeral of teenager Armita Geravand and filmed the participants, perhaps to ensure that the ceremony did not turn into a protest against the authorities, similar to the one that began after the death of Mahsa Amini, the victim of a similar attack. This was reported by Iran International TV channel, which quoted one of the participants.
