Hyderabad: Popular Turkish singer Melek Mosso has extended her support to anti-hijab protests in Iran. In a viral video, the artiste is seen cutting her hair on stage, expressing solidarity towards protesters in Iran.
The protests erupted in Iran after the death of a 22-year-old Kurdish woman, Mahsa Amini, in morality policy custody on September 17. Reportedly, Amini was arrested and beaten up for allegedly not following strict hijab rules — Under Iran’s sharia, or Islamic law, women over the age of seven are obliged to cover their hair and wear long, loose-fitting clothes.
As Mosso was seen cutting her hair during her performance, the audience applauded her.
