Masha Amini, 22, died in September 2022 after being arrested by Tehran's morality police for violating the strict dress code. Her death sparked a large-scale protest against Iran's political and religious leaders.
The young woman is buried in her hometown of Saqez, in Iran's Kurdistan province, where activists say authorities are determined to prevent any public gathering in her memory. Images posted on social media showed that the glass that protects a portrait of Amini on the tombstone was broken.
