Iranian Woman Punished With 74 Lashes For Refusing To Wear Hijab; Shocking Pic Surfaces

Roya Heshmati, who was a iranian women was punished with 74 lashes as per Islamic Republic court orders for refusing to comply with mandatory hijab regulations.

Iran: In a horrifying incident from Iran, a woman faced 74 lashes as per the Islamic Republic's court orders for refusing to comply with mandatory hijab regulations. The victim is identified as Roya Heshmati. This harsh punishment sheds light on the ongoing challenges faced by those opposing the enforced dress code in the Islamic state.

Roya Heshmati entered the courtroom and removed her hijab and an official ordered to wear cover up and she said that she would receive the lashes without covering up.

Defiance Of Court Order

According to a report in Iran International, Roya Heshmati, a vocal critic of compulsory hijab, courageously entered the courtroom without her hijab, asserting her right to receive the lashes without covering up. Despite officials' warnings of opening a new case against her for non-compliance with hijab if she did not cover up, she stood firm and faced the lashes.

A Glimpse Into The Whipping Room

Heshmati provided a chilling account of the whipping room, describing it as a medieval torture chamber with cement walls, a small bed and iron shackles. This vivid description offers a glimpse into the dehumanising environment in which such punishments are carried out.

International Outcry Against Inhumane Practices

The international community strongly condemns Iran's use of degrading punishments, such as flogging, which goes against the principles outlined in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Iran's continued reliance on such practices places it among the few countries persisting in employing such humiliating forms of punishment.

Similar Case Reported

In a separate case, Zeynab (Bahar) Khonyabpour, an opponent of compulsory hijab from Behbahan in Ahvaz province, received a two-year prison sentence for sharing photos without hijab on social media.

This week marks the 211th anniversary of The German Coast Rebellion.

On January 8, 1811, enslaved men and women from St. Charles, St. John the Baptist, and St. James parishes rose up and walked downriver toward New Orleans. They were armed with few rifles, sabers, machetes, fire-hardened oak sticks, or simply with their tools. After killing two of their enslavers and causing considerable damage to the plantations where they were forced to labor, they participants were stopped only two days later after a battle against the local militia backed by Federal troops. The insurrection started on the property of Manuel Andry, then the head of the local militia of St. John parish. The 1811 revolt had several leaders from various origins, some of them born in Africa. The main leader was Charles Deslondes, a Mulatto born on the plantation of Widow Jean-Baptiste Deslondes. The trial of the participants took place from January 13 to January 15. The judgments were rendered without appeal and death sentences were pronounced. The sentenced called for  each of the c...

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps. The accounts that rap£ or prostitution was common, Were the guards were given "free reign" over the prisoners given view of them as subhuman The Nazis sort of developed a network of state-controlled brothels during the war. This included both the civilian and military brothels. The Nazis even set up brothels for the forced labor inmates that helped with the German war effort as incentives for higher production from prisoners in camps. Back then these brothels were suppose to serving several needs. For the soldiers that were far away from home, the Nazis thought that having these brothels would reduce the possibility of rape in occupied lands and reducing the sexual relations with impure local women or forced laborer's, as well. Heck, the Nazis tried to use these brothel women to cure homosexuality as a treatment with male prisoners that were gay. Regular German women were exempt from serving in these b...

The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other

 The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other Steady on. Nearly all concentration camps were single-sex, and at those that held both men and women the sexes were usually kept separate, though at Auschwitz III (Monowitz) and possibly also some other sub-camps they worked together. At extermination camps (where the sexes were not separated) most of the prisoners were killed within 24 hours of arrival. Prisoners did not have privacy. Remember that at the time most people had a horror of same-sex relations, especially between men. However, some Kapos and even guards forced prisoners to have sex with them. In Night Elie Wiesel relates how he found his Kapo having sex with a female prisoner, and he (Wiesel) was given 25 lashes for finding them having sex.* In the Women’s Camp at least one guard forced another woman to have sex with her, and at many camps there was a piepel (camp bum boy). *He also describes the hanging of the piepel of a Blockältester ( ‘block senior’). ...
