Use of excessive force by the Police Command of the Islamic Republic of Iran
Excessive force of the Police Command of the Islamic Republic of Iran addresses the issue of police brutality and the arbitrary and illegal violence within the Police Command of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The violence of this police force against detainees, in cases such as Mehrdad Sepehri in Mashhad and Bahareh Cheshmbarah in Abadan, the killing of Mahsa Amini, the violent suppression of political and social protesters in the streets, their night raids on the homes of criminals in Tehran, and the humiliation of suspects by putting an "aftabeh" kettle for personal hygiene around their necks and displaying them in public, are among the incidents that have provoked widespread reactions.
