Armita Geravand, a teenage girl in Iran, has died after being in a coma for weeks following an incident on Tehran’s Metro. Her death has the potential to reignite the popular anger surrounding the mandatory headscarf law, which has been in place since the Islamic Revolution of 1979. The cause of Geravand’s injury and subsequent death is still unknown, but her death has sparked further debate about the mandatory headscarf law in Iran.
