"Unfortunate incident": this is how Iranian authorities describe the death of a woman who was in police custody

In Iran, police have referred to Mahsa Amini's death as an "unfortunate incident".

But he denied that he was physically harmed while in custody.

Amini, 22, was arrested by the morality police last week.

The death of the young woman unleashed a series of demonstrations in Tehran that left at least 38 injured.
