Mahsa Amini died of 'blow to the head': Family in Iraq

SULAIMANIYAH, Iraq - Iranian Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini was visiting Teheran with her family when she encountered the notorious morality police and died after a"violent blow to the head", her cousin living in Iraq said.

AFP spoke with Mr Mortezaee in Iraq's autonomous Kurdistan region - bordering Ms Amini's native Kurdistan province in Iran - where he has been living for a year. Wearing military fatigues and speaking at a Komala base in the Sulaimaniyah area of northern Iraq, Mr Mortezaee said Ms Amini's brother tried to tell the police that they were"in Teheran for the first time" and"did not know the traditions".

Jhina and her relatives were forced into the morality police van and taken to a station on Vezarat Street."When they hit her in the head with the baton, she lost consciousness," he said.After they arrived, it was at least another hour and a half before she was taken to a Teheran hospital, despite pleas from her relatives, Mr Mortezaee said.

At least 76 people have been killed in the demonstrations, according to the Oslo-based group Iran Human Rights , while Iran's semi-official Fars news agency has put the toll at"around 60".The protests come at a particularly sensitive time for Iran's leadership, when the country's economy remains mired in a crisis largely caused by US sanctions over its nuclear programme.
