Iran: women protesters targeted in attacks

Rally protesting death sentence of Mohammad Ali Taheri
A group of women protesting the death sentence issued for political prisoner Mohammad Ali Taheri rallied outside Tehran’s prosecutor’s office on Sunday morning, August 16.
They raised placards written: “Release Mohammad Ali Taheri.”
