Iranian Teen Influencer Shot Dead: Outrage and Calls for Action
The Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps continues its crackdown on anti-government demonstrators, resulting in the death of 19-year-old motorbike influencer, Diana Bahador, also known as “Baby Rider”. Reports indicate she was shot while protesting against the Ayatollah’s regime, but the Iranian state media disputes this, claiming she died in a motor crash. Human rights groups suggest that Diana’s family was coerced into releasing a statement to deny her execution in exchange for the return of her body. These events occur amidst widespread protests across Iran, sparked by economic issues, and escalating into broader demonstrations against the regime, met with violent government suppression and reported casualties.
