This is Yalda Aghafzali. She was 19. She was arrested during protests and was kept for 11 days in Qarchak prison, a notorious women-only prison. It is famous for inhuman and violent behavior towards women. A former prisoner once called it "a place of exile where you wait for your gradual death".
Yalda committed su icide a couple of days after her release. In a series of voice messages she sent to her friends after her release she said:
I've never been beaten in my life as much as I got beaten now. My whole body hurts. I've screamed so much my voice is hoarse. But I expressed no regret. They wrote in my file "the accused did not express remorse", I was like YEAH EXACTLY!
To paraphrase Pontius Pilate, I can find no fault with this wisdom! ๐๐ฅ๐
