Mahsa Amini (Persian: مهسا ژینا امینی; 21 September 1999 – 16 September 2022), also known as Jîna Emînî (Kurdish: ژینا ئەمینی), was a Kurdish woman whose arrest in Tehran for opposing mandatory hijab and subsequent death in police custody sparked a wave of protests throughout Iran. People and governments around the world reacted widely to her death.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Her death sparked widespread protest in Iranian society,[10] resulting in major protests in various cities in Iran and acts of solidarity around the world.[11][12][13][14][15] Amini's death ignited the global Woman, Life, Freedom movement - "Woman, Life, Freedom", which demands the end of compulsory hijab laws and other forms of discrimination and oppression against women in Iran.[16][17][18][19][20] She and the movement were selected as candidates for the Sakharov Prize in 2023 by European Parliament[21][22] for defending freedom and human rights.[23][24][25]
