A video posted on social media showed security guards at a branch of the Islamic Azad University detaining the unidentified woman. University spokesperson Amir Mahjob said on X that “at the police station,…it was found that she was under severe mental pressure and had a mental disorder”.

But some social media users suggested the woman’s action was a deliberate protest.
“For most women, being …in their underwear in public is one of their worst nightmares, … This is a reaction to the (authorities’) stupid insistence on the mandatory hijab,” Lei La, a user on X, said in a comment accompanying the video.

Growing numbers of women have defied authorities by discarding their veils after nationwide protests that followed the death in September 2022 of a young Iranian Kurdish woman in the custody of the morality police for allegedly violating hijab rules. Security forces violently put down the revolt.
