Shabnam Farshadjoo is known for Temporary Licence (2017), When Did You See Sahar Last Time? (2016) and Revelation in A Silent Party (2009). A young woman has died after falling into a coma following her detention by morality police, state media have reported, sparking fury on social media. “Unfortunately, she died and her body was transferred to the medical examiner’s office,” state television reported on Friday. The announcement came a day after police confirmed Amini had been detained with other women for “instruction” about the rules. Reacting to the incident, human rights organisation Amnesty International said, “The circumstances leading to the suspicious death in custody of 22-year-old young woman Mahsa Amini, which include allegations of torture and other ill-treatment in custody, must be criminally investigated.”
