Iran: state agents continue acid attacks against women


Acid attacks in Iran

According to reports wired by the state-run Fars news agency, affiliated to the Revolutionary Guards, on Saturday, February 27th two young women in the city of Semnan, northern Iran, were acid attacked when exiting a women’s hair salon.
These two young women suffered serious injuries in their faces and other parts of their body and one was transferred to a hospital outside of Semnan Prison.

Acid attacks are an inhumane method used by Ali Khamenei’s plainclothes and Bassij agents against women and girls that have been carried out mainly in the cities of Isfahan and Tehran. The perpetrators of these crimes have never been identified or punished. In fact, they have been indirectly supported by officials of the Islamic state.
