An Iranian teenager was sexually assaulted and killed by three men working for Iran’s security forces, a leaked document understood to have been written by those forces says.
It has let us map what happened to 16-year-old Nika Shakarami who vanished from an anti-regime protest in 2022.
Her body was found nine days later. The government claimed she killed herself.
We put the report’s allegations to Iran’s government and its Revolutionary Guards. They did not respond.
Marked “Highly Confidential”, the report summarises a hearing on Nika’s case held by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) - the security force that defends the country’s Islamic establishment. It includes what it says are the names of her killers and the senior commanders who tried to hide the truth.

Jesus I hate some people more and more just reading the news. It’s so horrible. I wish I didn’t know the full extend of barbarism humans are capable of.
The only thing that comes of ignorance is deeper ignorance.
Guys I really would like you to spare me I am 14 and this is deep takes, whenever I get notif I need to revisit this news piece again when I just want to erase it
sorry kid. you can’t hide form the world forever. we need those who are most disgusted to be the ones that break the cycle.
Morality police, coming to a republic near you if you don’t vote.
Explain how voting helps Iranians
Uh well for one, Trump will probably try to nuke Tehran if he wins the election or something similarly idiotic. If he wins, I 100% expect us to be at war with Iran in under two years.
Unlike in the US, where police are strictly prohibited from doing this. I tell other lies, as well.
You’re not wrong in many cases. But the transgressions of US police have nothing to do with this story.
Idk, seems like a classic case of ACAB.
In this particular case, we’re told to care precisely because it is Iranian police, rather than an officer from Chicago or Dallas or Miami.
And our response is expected to be a call for more military action against Iran. Which will inevitably mean more troops in and around the Iranian border. And more policing of residents in those border regions. And… consequently… more men with guns using their outsized authority to commit sexual assault against locals. Which will result in local backlash against the western forces. Which will then be attributed to the IRG. Which will then be used as further causi belli for escalated conflicts.
But the idea of police reform at home will never cross our minds. This isn’t an object lesson in poor policing, its a problem we’re supposed to believe is unique to Iranians who are inherently evil.
That so called regime is a travesty. Hope the Iranian people can some day be free.
They won’t be able to topple the regime without outside assistance.
Unfortunately they’re brown, so they don’t get a blank check from the United States like Ukraine and Israel.
Brown people have to solve their own problems, or else it’s colonization.
No they’re left wing compared to their government so they won’t get us assistance. Who do you think helped overthrow the liberal government of Iran?
But also Iran is a nuclear power and unhinged

In something of a cultural paradox, Iran is worse on LGB rights but significantly better on T rights than its western peers. So stark is the contrast that cis-gay men and women are often under pressure to transition in an attempt to become more socially acceptable to social conservatives in power.
But also Iran is a nuclear power and unhinged
If you compare the Israeli response to October 7th with the Iranian response to Israeli’s bombing of their Syrian embassy or the US slaying of their General-turned-Ambassador Qasem Soleimani, I’d say they are some of the most hinged residents in the region.
They also haven’t successfully conducted a nuclear test to date. They have ballistic missiles with traditional munitions, and they have some hypersonic rockets that have outclassed western missile defense systems (as evidenced by the post-embassy retaliation into the Israeli desert). But their nuclear capacity isn’t even at North Korean tier, largely thanks to their lack of enrichable uranium.
Secret documents acquired by <Western news agency that spread Zionist propaganda before> showing <Country/Group Israel currently doesn’t like> sexually violating female. Original documents and/or evidence cannot be shown
Entire thread filled with Islamophobia
Yep, it’s Reddit time
Based, but where did it say “Original documents and/or evidence cannot be shown”
So, chances are she killed herself? I don’t get what you’re trying to say… like, this article is lying?
