Zahra Rahnavard: The Hijab and Chastity Law is a Hostile Act Against the Transformative Movement of Women, Life, Freedom
Zahra Rahnavard, one of the leaders of the Green Movement, in a statement sent from house arrest on Thursday, December 6th, described the so-called Hijab and Chastity Law as a pseudo-law and considered it a deliberate divide and rule policy. Rahnavard stated that this law is an insult to the nation and creates an earthquake and rift in the pillars of the state and nation.
She referred to this law as a pseudo-law that is a taunt and hostile act against the transformative movement of Women, Life, Freedom. Zahra Rahnavard criticized policies that have led to unemployment, poverty, lack of housing, and the destruction of families.
She says that the rulers are picking the pockets of the people, turning freedoms into oppression, joy into mourning, children into criminals, calling women to be under the guardianship of the government, and offering foreigners the opportunity to insult women.
