THIS is the moment an Iranian student strips to her underwear after being allegedly assaulted by morality cops over her hijab – before being bundled violently into a car.
Footage shows the brave woman sat near-nude while an outraged man tosses a jacket at her in a pathetic bid to cover her up.

The video, which has since gone viral, shows the brave protester walking Tehran’s Azad University of Science and Research campus in just her underwear.
She is captured sat outside the university while some onlookers watch on in disbelief at the rarity of showing so much skin – especially in Iran where wearing a hijab is a legal requirement.
Not doing so, or refusal, can lead to imprisonment and torture.
One man approaches her while on the phone, presumably to the morality cops, to toss a jacket at her.
But the courageous woman doesn’t care and swiftly takes off to continue parading the campus grounds in all her glory.
At one point she even pulls down her pants, with groups of students stood in disbelief at to what they’re witnessing.
As she paces around, she’s seen shouting up at the sky but it’s unclear what she is saying.
The Iranian woman was arrested after the protesting stunt against an alleged assault by cops for not following oppressive hijab laws.
The woman apparently had her clothes torn inside the university on Saturday for not following strict hijab rules, Iran International reports.
Islamic Azad University confirmed her arrest on X – but gave no reason as to why.
Director Amir Mahjoub wrote: “Following an indecent act by a student at the Science and Research Branch of the university, campus security intervened and handed the individual over to law enforcement authorities.
“The motives and underlying reasons for the student’s actions are currently under investigation.”
The brave student is said to have sustained injuries after being physically assaulted during her arrest, Iran International reports.
Citing a newsletter by the student group Amir Kabir Newsletter, it said the student was “disrobed after being harassed for not wearing a headscarf and having her clothing torn by security forces”.
It continued to say that her head was struck by either a car door or a pillar which caused heavy bleading, resulting in “blood stains” being “reportedly seen on the car’s tyres”.
Amnesty International’s Iran unit called for the women to be “immediately and unconditionally” released who was violently arrested.
The organisation said on X: “Pending her release, authorities must protect her from torture & other ill-treatment & ensure access to family and lawyer.
“Allegations of beatings and sexual violence against her during arrest need independent & impartial investigations. Those responsible must held to account.”
Iran’s morality police are a violent, oppressive arm of the Tehran regime who patrol the streets enforcing strict religious rules.

Known as “Guidance Patrol”, they are called out to punish citizens for “improper” behaviour and clothing.
Women detained by cops are either given a warning or bundled into a van and whisked away to a “correctional facility” or a police station where they are lectured on how to dress before being released to their male relatives.
Various clips this year have shown their increased presence as the country ramps up its violent crackdowns on women.
One disturbing video shows the moment Iran’s twisted morality police hurl a woman in the back of one of their patrol vans.
Before this a woman was filmed tackling a girl to the ground and attacking her as she screamed – seemingly because she hadn’t covered her hair.
Video has shown the morality police snatching women off the streets and bundling them into vans for wearing jeans in public.
Tehran announced a fresh crackdown on “anomalies” to its religious rules under the “Nour Project” in April.
The Jerusalem Post reports suggest crackdowns on behaviour have been violent.
Sexual harassment, beatings, arrests and the use of tasers have been reported around the country.
Widespread protests have been gaining traction in Iran since 2022 – after the death of Mahsa Amini.
Amini died in the custody of Tehran’s “morality police” after being arrested for violating Iran’s hijab rules.
She was beaten to death for wearing an “improper” hijab on September 16, 2022.
In what became known as the headscarf revolution, months of unrest followed.
Women of all ages ripped off their compulsory hijabs at public demonstrations in defiance of the nation’s feared morality police.
Hundreds of people were killed, including dozens of security personnel, in a brutal crackdown and thousands of protesters were arrested.
Reports of torture and death at the hands of officials have also surfaced.
Iran’s Morality Police
UNDER Iranian law, rooted in Sharia law, women must cover their hair with a hijab and wear long, loose-fitting clothing.
The Guidance Patrol – aka the morality police – are in charge of arresting women who violate the conservative dress code.
Tasked with ensuring Islamic morals are respected, they spend their days patrolling public spaces in vans to crack down on “improper” behaviour and clothing.
Women detained by cops are either given a warning or bundled into a van and whisked away to a “correctional facility” or a police station.
They are then lectured on how to dress before being released to their male relatives.
Since the 1980s, many women have been beaten to death by the callous morality police, or tortured into given false confessions.
