Descriptions

La police des mœurs fait partie des forces de l’ordre iraniennes, et constitue une unité de police spéciale, chargée de faire appliquer le strict code vestimentaire prévu pour les femmes, y compris le port obligatoire du voile. La police des mœurs a fait un usage illégal de la force à l’encontre de femmes pour non-respect des lois iraniennes sur le hijab, et elle s’est livrée à des violences sexuelles et sexistes, à des arrestations et détentions arbitraires, à des violences excessives et à la torture. Le 13 septembre 2022, la police des mœurs a arrêté arbitrairement Mahsa Amini, âgée de 22 ans, à Téhéran, pour avoir prétendument porté un hijab de manière inappropriée. Celle-ci a ensuite été emmenée au siège de la police des mœurs pour y recevoir un “cours d’éducation et d’orientation”. Selon des informations et des témoins fiables, elle a été brutalement battue et maltraitée en détention, ce qui a conduit à son hospitalisation et, le 16 septembre 2022, à sa mort. Le comportement abusif de la police des mœurs ne se limite pas à cet incident et a été largement documenté. Par conséquent, la police des mœurs porte la responsabilité de graves violations des droits de l’homme en Iran.
