Young Iranians protest over ‘harsh lashings’ by police

Al Arabiya, 22 November 2016 – Young Iranians accused of breaking their country’s moral codes have been uploading photos on social media of injuries sustained from lashings by the security forces.
A party where unmarried couples attend is strictly forbidden by Iran’s religious police.
One photo showed a 28-year-old woman’s severely bruised back after she was arrested by authorities. She was washed 80 times as punishment for attending a party where men were present in the city of Mashhad nearly two years ago.
