Graffiti seen in Iran during the ongoing protests following the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22yr old woman who fell into a coma after being beaten in police custody.
Ms Amini, an ethnic Kurd who was from the western city of Saqez in Kurdistan province, died in hospital on Friday after spending three days in a coma.
She was detained outside a metro station in Tehran last Tuesday by morality police. They accused her of breaking the law requiring women to cover their hair with a headscarf, and their arms and legs with loose clothing.
According to witnesses, she was beaten while inside a police van that took her to a detention centre.
Protests erupted in Saqez after her funeral on Saturday, with security forces reportedly opening fire on a crowd that marched towards the local governor's office.
There were also clashes between protesters and riot police in Sanandaj, Kurdistan's capital, on Saturday and Sunday.
Four people were reportedly killed in Iran's Kurdish region on Monday when security forces opened fire during protests over the death, a Kurdish rights group said.
Her death has been condemned nationwide, with the Persian hashtag reaching nearly 2 million Twitter mentions.
The most intense demonstrations have been in Iranian Kurdistan, where authorities have previously put down unrest among minority Kurds.
