An Iranian teenage girl who fell into a coma after allegedly being assaulted by the country's morality police for not wearing a headscarf has died, according to Iranian state media. Armita Geravand, 16, was hospitalized with head injuries following the incident at a Tehran metro station earlier this month. The incident has reignited anger over Iran's mandatory headscarf law and sparked protests. The New York-based Center for Human Rights in Iran said that as long as the government enforces this law, the lives of girls and women in Iran will be at risk of severe rights violations. The exact details surrounding Geravand's injuries are still unclear, but the Iranian state media reported that she suffered a fall, brain injury, convulsions, decreased cerebral oxygenation, and cerebral edema. The wider unrest surrounding the headscarf law was not explicitly addressed in the news report. Activists and opposition networks have claimed that Geravand was "assaulted" by the morality police and that she was admitted to the hospital with "head trauma."
