Mansour Rezaei

Mansour Rezaei

Mansour Rezaei is the brother of Naser Rezaei who was killed in the November 2019 protests. He was arrested during the countrywide uprising in reaction to Mahsa Amini's murder.

The murder of Mahsa Amini triggered a country-wide uprising in September 2022 in Iran. The protests were initially sporadical around the country and against the mandatory hijab. But in a few days, dozens of cities in Iran became the scenes of clashes between protesters and security forces. The protesters' main demands were freedom of attire and the overthrow of the Islamic Republic. The focus of the protests on women led to international attention. <symbol-timeline></symbol-timeline>
