Exclusive: Ahoo Daryaei Revealed as the Woman Who Undressed in Protest Against Morality Police
Close associates of Ahoo Daryaei, a student who protested against morality police harassment at Tehranโs Science and Research University by removing her clothes, have shared photos and details about her with me.
One of her associates said, โHer official name is Mahla, but her friends and close ones call her Ahoo, at her request. We know her as an incredibly brave woman who never accepted coercion.โ
Another source told me that Ahoo Daryaei has two young children. She was married once but separated from her husband some time ago. Her ex-husband was the brought on camera by state TV, claiming to be her spouse and asking people not to share her images.
A close friend added that authorities have disabled Ahooโs Instagram account, where she shared many videos and photos of herself and her children, clearly showing that she was not only mentally sound but also a lively, courageous woman filled with joy and vitality.
In sending Ahooโs pictures, this source emphasized, โAhoo, besides being exceptionally intelligent and achieving the highest grades, was well-known among her friends and classmates for her courage and determination to stand up against oppression. She defended her rights multiple times, both in school and university, confronting harassers and bullies.โ
Ahoo Daryaei was transferred under worrying circumstances to Iran Psychiatric Hospital, where significant concerns about her safety and well-being remain. The atmosphere at the psychiatric hospital has become highly secured since her arrival, with security forces isolating her in part of the emergency room, denying even hospital staff access to her.
Yesterday, an informed source at the hospital told me that initial observations by the staff indicated Ahoo was mentally healthy. However, after her initial assessment, only doctors affiliated with security agencies from outside the hospital have been allowed in her room. According to this source, it appears that authorities intend to push her to the brink of insanity through unknown pills and injections. Ahoo once attempted to escape the hospital but was unsuccessful.
Be the voice of Ahoo Daryaei. Her life is in danger.
