Anger mounts in Iran over woman's death after 'morality police' arrest

Protests have broken out in Iran over the death of a young woman who had been arrested by the "morality police" that enforces a strict dress code.

Her death has reignited calls to rein in morality police actions against women suspected of violating the dress code, in effect since the 1979 Islamic revolution.
