Aylar Haghi was allegedly killed by police in Tabriz, the capital of East Azerbaijan Province, during anti-hijab demonstrations on 16th November.

This is according to Iranian Student Union Councils quoted in independent media.

Aylar, who was studying medicine at Azad University in Tabriz, reportedly took shelter in the building during a protest march.

But – it has emerged – she was found and hurled from the roof of the building landing on a spiked metal reinforcing bar, used in concrete construction.

The bar pierced her body, puncturing her abdomen and killing her.

Her funeral is set to take place this morning, Friday, 18th November.

Iranian forces have been cracking down on waves of civil disorder following the death of Mahsa Amini, 22, from Saqqez, Kurdistan Province, who was on a visit to Tehran when she was arrested by morality police, accused of violating hijab rules on 13th September.

She was allegedly beaten while in custody and spent the following days in a coma in the hospital before dying in the ICU on 16th September.

The clinic where she was treated said in a now-deleted social media post that she had been admitted brain-dead.

Alleged medical scans of her skull leaked by hackers showed that she had suffered bone fractures, haemorrhages, and brain oedema.

Independent Iranian media have claimed that Mahsa’s medical records showing her history of heart disease were faked by the Iranian government.

Numbers differ regarding how many people have been killed since the protests began.

The ongoing protests have so far claimed at least 384 lives, including 43 children, and injured at least 1,160, according to independent estimates.
