Revolutionary Guards' papers passed to the BBC give chilling details of Nika Shakarami’s last movements.

An Iranian teenager was sexually assaulted and killed by three men working for Iran’s security forces, a leaked document understood to have been written by those forces says.

It has let us map what happened to 16-year-old Nika Shakarami who vanished from an anti-regime protest in 2022.

Her body was found nine days later. The government claimed she killed herself.

We put the report’s allegations to Iran’s government and its Revolutionary Guards. They did not respond.

Marked “Highly Confidential”, the report summarises a hearing on Nika’s case held by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) - the security force that defends the country’s Islamic establishment. It includes what it says are the names of her killers and the senior commanders who tried to hide the truth.

    fapfapfap. “at least we don’t do that” is an article of faith you cannot afford, not to mention that ship sailed long ago (there are absolutely documented cases of this sort of behaviour in US police, that are (shockingly!) not popular stories in america)

    but sure, go ahead and pretend one monkey is magically different from another monkey

    or do you lose your mind at the suggestion that you’re an animal like everyone else?

      I don’t know what the fuck you are rambling on about here. But all the best, pal.

        How could American’s experience with American policing colour their response to an article about foreign policing? Are their impressions accurate?

        Why would anyone pretend that a primate in a certain situation would react in a way that is uncharacteristic of its species to that situation?

        The differences in american vs iranian policing are of degree, perhaps, but not kind, and frankly, likely not of degree either. Your bros have done some pretty bad shit and I’m sure you could find instances of police rape and murder without even going back a whole week, if you tried.
