9:34 am
or is this the beginning of the end of the islamic regime? iran is one of the world's 10 worst countries for press freedom reporters are very much at risk as, as any one seen speaking to foreign media, which is why we decided not to travel to iran for our own. and every one else is safety. instead, we stayed in vienna and try to reach a young student in iran by phone. i think the connection is bad, unfortunately. can you hear me now? internet access has been restricted in iran since the protest began with cooling, the young woman marian out of concern for her security. we're not using her real name and her voice has been dumped me. i hear you know, i hear you. why do you think your generation started this protests in the internet? you can see that other countries help leave how warm and leave
9:35 am
thought you said why we can't leave like this. why they can do everything. because it's not, no hot or life is not no money in the lot. many women including miriam, have demonstratively been breaking the hedge up law and showing their hair. this was unthinkable until a short time ago. the whole man displayed the job in the university. in this event, in the family. the head job is the same for that. are you still scared if you go to the street without that job? i'm a scared but that's like the 1st thing. you know, the 1st day was the eunice katie because i wait for the more police i was like this take, they take me now, but now it's in the change. it's kind of the 1st sexes,
9:36 am
but it's not like are all you know. the rule is not changed. just change in the streets, especially anyone who refuses to comply with the hedge of law can be stopped on the street and taken in by the morality, police and risks harsh punishments. i found another woman who we are calling. we're sheena. she's in her mid forties and was recently released from prison. she was sentenced for protesting against the hedge up law. i'm not against the job against mandatory hit job. there are still controls for compliance with the hedge up law. and the regime has eyes everywhere. established african, my friend and i were in the car, we stopped in front of an intersection. it. there are many cameras on the streets which take pictures of the inside the cars. washing by with ours, we got a text message within a few minutes that we had not followed islamic rules. shimoda shorter than this
9:37 am
looking iranian born lawyer shira, her. sammy lives in vienna. from here, she documents the protests and posts updates on twitter every day. the photos and videos come from iran, social media are the only platforms iranians have to show the international community what is happening inside their country. with the obstacles here, i posted a concert which took place in tehran from the audience, started chanting women life freedom i. that's remarkable when you consider how many people have already been in prison, obviously fulfill a mansion dish on him, defend ms. simpson. how many videos come from the hundreds of school goals who've been poisoned across the country? the regime is suspected of being involved. others shows social media trends like turban tossing young people, film each other,
9:38 am
knocking turbans off the head of his lum, clerics as a form of protest. unfunny sneezed by the need. people at the beginning not much happened because they had no means of control in august. because then they passed a law making target, toasting a punishable offense on hand and they hunted people down and arrested them for half dead. some were brutally tortured at warden. there was that very bad case of a young man. i think he was just 16 monetary and younger. he took his own life to have that he was tortured so brutally in custody and put under so much pressure the half that he could not stand. it would be able to talk as it does dim, nissan titan. called a, this couple has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for this dance in front of the freedom tower and a great personal risk. young people have also scrawled anti regime slogans on buildings. i think about books there crossed out what we wrote last night, but we just wrote it again on thompson to protest the executions. people have
9:39 am
suspended nooses from bridges with moolah figures as it did because i thought these are the development has been that these street protests eyes, the van, which initially really a lot of people joined, which were held in different locations. at the same time, i have stopped and i had to face can only because so many people were arrested in a short time that they told us when death sentences were given. as a thought is to that scared young people from the peg isn't but it. so they switch to other forms of protest and that i put this that says as on for still here and we're organizing. bob is in the organs, but i think they need a bit of a break from fighting out on the streets. and paul's in my form from his english class and come sure a has shami says the role of the iranian diaspora has now become more important than would you like to connect on those to me on the, on the entity ron said, we've been out on the streets for months back, it would be good if you could take over for a while and help. sure, a shami makes her way to the united nations office in vienna,

9:42 am
why have you decided to give this interview and not hide your face? i'm, i don't think people are not. i have each that include the care. i think the main reason why some iranians hesitate to go out on the streets and fight, that is fear yet that he alban harp yard while they're scared of being heard in prison had their path. bad in here is big you damage or i am showing my face on camera because i want to dissipate that feeling me she in abilene due to being so bad. if we don't have the courage to go out and confront them direct other, get more shower material. yeah. they will spread rumors as durable here in the population law and rule air boy, and we will not by and that was sure your i to book i live where he just passed the draw me an f ab a bad is why i am showing my face you good, maybe cheap. begin that you had your math yet got right job. you that went up man to you? afraid? asked, still bet they did. i give a gun. they retired tom to rogue. i will be lying. if i said i was not afraid at madame, then i am with thought udall by sham and i also have a family at that

9:44 am
that much more than my gnawed lot of me that began in just my books out about here in iran, an 11 year old girl can be engaged to a 60 year old man. if her father gives his permission to have the mattress men and marry for women, john, no matter how the woman feels about it like a band. and if a woman complains char, he can cut off her livelihood traffic. and women here have no right to decide that the universe that we are not even allowed to decide what we, where, and took all the bushes, some of the rods and my daddy. meanwhile, the iranian government has been propagating a different version of what is happening in the country. they claim that the protests are organized by the usa, and that the protest is, are killing policeman bags. yeah. you have, oh no, no, no joe, on on you have some of these protesters are teenagers and young people and know she has who have taken to the streets, one of their emotions after seeing something on the internet. so when we get higher

9:46 am
munich in a democracy, hottie, you never ask yourself the question of what democracy mean suspect, thought i. but when i came to iran, i was confronted with the fact that i no longer had freedom kyle and no longer had pieced kind of freedom out. why the research that the is in is not in essence 0. you can't report freely in the islamic republic of iran, venson state, and that you aren't from who none of the country is ranked 178 out of 180 on their reporters without borders. wanted for thought. i know they constantly tried to thwart journalist one becomes and they put obstacles in our way. and vicki league, dancer, sean, and then there's the question of how you can report on such a country as best to how you can convey what is really happening there. thought path, see it then because life as it's portrayed by the regime, it's just a bluff is j. m quantum nor i'm bluff. it was,
9:47 am
it turned on television. women are portrayed us having freedom, i know and as having rights. and it was dorn d. but in reality, a woman in iran hardly has any rights to defect what and of how she only counts as half a personal. he built a new id as, as high by mench exceeded. these law mac regime has been in powerful 44 years ever since the 1979 revolution ended the monarchy, unopposed of then rulers shot mohammed razor pac larvae. his successor was a ron's 1st supreme leader, ayatollah to holler hominy, who turned the iranian revolution. internet law mc one, with far reaching consequences. we spoke to rainy and noble peace prize, laurie at sharina body. she was the 1st female judge in the history of iran, and was in iran when the shawl was overthrown. to day she rena body lives in exile
9:48 am
in london and only gets into views online. the rainy in secret service is known for its kidnapping and murder plants, even abroad. shamela kathy, but last shadow, that i had already received several deaths rattled. how jimmy duncan, i prefer not to make it easy for my enemies to fulfil their intentions. yet the kids out of this. that's why i prefer assume your son is the ones hook him up at the moment. more, ma'am, then made you. i joined the anti sha protest like millions of my fellow citizens in iran, but i quickly realized what a mistake i had made that well, we all had made it to will have vanity kathy and i had tony khomeini all the freedoms women have before the revolution were abolished and islamic legal system was introduced. the worth of a woman's testimony in court was valued half that of a man's wearing the hedge up became mandatory, and alcohol was bad. zona saw it rueful
9:49 am
me, said when the shot was in power before we were doing quite well given the circumstances, food. although the higher we had personal freedom all, all there were no problems in that respect. but mostly what we didn't have under the shop was political freedom, khomeini. so we thought homie, me would bring us political freedom. he goes, but unfortunately, that didn't happen. is jenny, although yet not only did he failed to bring us political freedom on what passed upon it, he took away the personal freedom that we had it as we were russ s o. d. and then our economic situation also deteriorated. it, it must be done. you don't miss your blood pressure after the revolution, she ran a body, lost her job as a judge. the explanation being that women were not suitable for that position. in
9:50 am
the following years, she defended women's rights as a human rights lawyer. in 2003, she was awarded the nobel peace prize for this work and became the 1st muslim woman to win the prize. although she was celebrated in terran after the award, those in power increasingly restricted her freedom until she left iran in 2009. in connie he shall fall and they made it impossible for me to continue my work in iran already. i could no longer practiced law. they confiscated my assets, my property little man, validity, they started prosecuting me ever. so i had no choice but to leave iran in order to stay away his fundamentals. and since then i've been able to work on much more actively and all over them. but he said, i saw the account for you since the islamic revolution, the u. s. is seen as the countries main enemy. iran presents itself as united with
9:51 am
china and russia in their fight against the waste. but in private, behind closed doors, things are a bit different. yeah, as it does, it's much below one example is this twitter account called rich kids of tehran as well, which tries to show how the regime does not follow its own principles, dusty this machine to listen and they have to built up this religious dictatorship in the country in law with its rules and oppression would, is atlantic usage except what then we seek their own children that are you who obviously don't want to be subjected to these rules of leave. not because they are young and have grown up with digital media. born with a say, well, you send me to get i made in of give axle seemed to listen. look, that's western bread and super fancy that month. and here you can see a party video into iran, especially there is a big party scene, although of course everything happens behind closed doors and in secret, apologizing too often it's the children of islamic revolutionary guard corps who are there because they are never subject to controls don't got these,
9:52 am
no one comes by and checks whether people are dancing, whether men and women are mixing, whether alcohol is being consumed, they are well off. they live off their parents' money, which is essentially the people's money from their tax revenues. from the before go home from the revolutionary, gar, disciplined, economic power in iran, the, each of they control the whole national economy, forks, their trough, many companies, the or their c. e. o is a revolutionary guards, lutherans got these, meaning they have a lot and economic power of each of coffee stop. meanwhile, many citizens struggled to make ends meet corruption, political isolation, and international sanctions are all taking their toll on the general population. the iranian real is losing value every day. if it is expensive, norm and lots of people have a problem with ford and ping that you need for leaving. it was bad the laptop years ago, but it war and wars and war and now toilet labor. the
9:53 am
regimes revolutionary god, doesn't just control the economy, but also the media and the judiciary. it is a powerful parallel army with 200000 members and is notorious for its violence against female demonstrators. iranians at home and abroad are calling on the european union to put the revolutionary god on the e u. terrorist in february, thousands when to brussels to voice. this demand also a rainy and medina, barza was also there and you know, somebody photo discharge amount to the you is that they stopped their double standards of ireland. we have a regime in power in iran, which is so terrible and so inhumane, that it cannot be condoned. it has come and gone isn't, doesn't bumped on yet in the u. building behind us. they sit down at a table and negotiate and who deals with these people handle on launch for to the
9:54 am
right stop doing business with these terrorists. that's our main demand for the new has imposed sanctions on individual members of the revolutionary god, but not against the organization. as a whole the you sides legal hurdles, but there is also the new tier deal which was put on hold and might be revived. natalie, a mary says that european foreign policy has been manipulated by lobbyists of the islamic republic. for years they have warned that if the islamic regime falls and the multi ethnic state of iran breaks up, it will become a security risk for europe vastly of an exact time. but what they had never said is, what of the islamic republic no longer existed, hit than get distinct in the world's largest finance or of terror would cease to exist to them human that there were no more warren yamini. they rush could to fight
