Iran crackdown persists four years after Mahsa Amini death; rights groups warn

Human rights groups report that officials responsible for the 2022 protest suppression remain in control of Iran's security apparatus, with Kurdish businesses shuttered in Amini's home region. The UN Special Rapporteur states four years of state violence have failed to extinguish resistance. This indicates sustained repression and ongoing human rights violations, with implications for regional stability and international scrutiny.
