The Iran Revolutionary Guards news agency, Fars, reported that on Saturday afternoon Feb. 27th two young women were attacked with acid splashed on their faces as they were coming out of a beauty saloon in the city of Semnan, northern Iran. As the result of this acid-attack, the two young girls were severely injured and their faces and bodies burned.
They were immediately transferred to a hospital, but the injury of one of the girls was so deep that she had to be transferred to a major hospital in the capital.
The use of acid against innocent women and girls in Iran are a common means of vicious attack usually carried out by Iranian regime affiliated paramilitary Basiej militants and plainclothes agents of the mullahs’ misogynist regime.
This brutal and anti-human way of suppressing women and forcing them to wear strict Islamic dress-codes or what is commonly called, Hejab, has been carried out before in other major cities including Isfahan and Tehran and to this date no perpetrators have ever been arrested or brought to justice.
