Today marked a year since the state-murder of Jina (Mahsa) Amini. As well as arresting Jina Amini’s father, Amjad Amini this morning and holding him under house arrest to prevent a ceremony being held for his daughter, security forces have also blocked the main road leading to the cemetery. State forces have been patrolling the road since this morning and preventing all entry. Furthermore, state forces have also opened the Cheragh Veis dam from Saqqez river in order to block the off-road route people were using to access the cemetery.
