After 2½ months of deadly protests, Iran says mandatory hijab law under review – Attorney-General Mohammad Jafar Montazeri gives no indication on how legislation could be modified | Timesofisrael

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran’s parliament and the judiciary are reviewing a law that requires women to cover their heads, and which triggered more than two months of deadly protests, the attorney general said.
The demonstrations began after Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Iranian of Kurdish origin, died in custody on September 16 after her arrest by Iran’s morality police for an alleged breach of the dress code.
