Source: i24NEWS English/YouTube

A man in Iran who recently beheaded his 17-year-old wife and carried her head around in public while smiling received a sentence of only eight years in prison. Women and men in Iran have been protesting the misogyny that is built into Iranian laws for a long time. Many have been arrested, tortured, and even killed for voicing their beliefs. It’s time we lent our Support to them and help give women better protection in Iran. Please sign this petition to Urge the Government of Iran to strengthen domestic violence laws!
