Nasibe Samsaei, an Iranian woman living in Turkey, cuts her ponytail off

during a protest outside the Iranian consulate in Istanbul on September

21, 2022, following the death of an Iranian woman after her arrest by the

country's morality police in Tehran. Mahsa Amini, 22, was on a visit with

her family to the Iranian capital Tehran, when she was detained on Sep-

tember 13, 2022, by the police unit responsible for enforcing Iran's strict

dress code for women, including the wearing of the headscarf in public.

She was declared dead on September 16, 2022 by state television after

having spent three days in a coma. © Yasin Akgul / AFP
