Tehran: Following protests against the controversial "moral police" over the death of a young woman, an Iranian lawmaker took a rare stance on Tuesday, criticizing them, according to local media.

As a result of the arrest of Mahsa Amini by the police department on charges of enforcing Iran's stringent dress code for women, which involves wearing a headscarf in public, public anger has grown since authorities killed her on Friday declare.

After being in a coma for three days, the 22-year-old succumbed to his injuries in the hospital.

His passing comes amid a growing debate about the actions of Iran's ethics police, officially known as Patrol-e Ershad or "Guidance Patrol", both domestically and abroad.

According to MP Jalal Rashidi Kuchi, "Gasht-e Ershad is wrong because it has caused no consequences for the country other than loss and damage," and "the main problem is that some people resist accepting the truth."

Kuchi questioned the effectiveness of the current enforcement strategy for those who violate the dress code.

Do the people whom the Guidance Patrol later leads to these explanatory sections become aware and repent? Kuchi said, according to ISNA.

The United Nations called for an impartial investigation after Iran's "ethics police" condemned Mahsa Amini's death in custody following violent crackdown on protests related to her arrest and her death.

The rights office said in a statement that the violent reaction of security forces to Mahsa Amini's death in custody and the subsequent protests has alarmed Nada al-Nasif, the UN Acting High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Al-Nasif's statement said that "an immediate, impartial and effective investigation into the tragic death of Mahsa Amini and the allegations of torture and abuse must be carried out by an independent competent authority, which in particular ensures that justice for her family is served." And have access to the truth."

In the province of Kurdistan, where the deceased woman was on Sunday, police made arrests and used tear gas when an estimated 500 protesters broke windows of cars and set garbage cans on fire during their demonstrations.

Protests broke out in Tehran on Monday, including several universities and another city, Mashhad, according to Fars and Tasnim news agencies.

Fars continued, "Several hundred people raised anti-government slogans, some of them removing their headscarfs."
