By Husam Dughman

A woman partially uncovers her hair. Members of a vice squad (called Guidance Patrol) arrest her. They insult her. She fires back, refusing to be disrespected. They beat her badly. She falls unconscious. She later dies. What was her crime? Uncovering some of her hair. Really? Whose human rights does that violate? Insofar as the actions of Iran’s Islamic Republic are concerned, political persecution is not a crime. The perversion of the rule of law is not a crime. Widespread corruption is not a crime. Favouritism, cronyism, and nepotism are not a crime. The violation of human rights is not a crime. The partial exposure of a woman’s hair…… Now, that is what the Ayatollahs call a crime.
