Following the recent events in Iran and the protests after the murder of Mahsa Zhina Amini, the United Nations has established an Independent International Fact-Finding Mission (FFMI) to investigate the deteriorating situation of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The FFMI has invited those whom the Islamic Republic has harmed since September 16th, 2022 to send evidence of human
