Iran says student in underwear protest moved to ‘specialized care center’
[IsraelTimes] An Iranian student who stripped to her underwear in Tehran in protest at alleged harassment over her clothing was transferred to a center of “specialized care,” Iran’s embassy to Paris says.
“The student in question suffers from psychological fragility and was transferred by an ambulance of the emergency social services to a specialized care center,” it says in a statement, without giving further details on the nature of the center.
Concern has grown over the whereabouts and welfare of the young woman, with activists worried authorities could confine her in a psychiatric institution.
