#Taraneh #Alidoosti has been arrested one week after posting a video condemning the Iranian government for the execution of #Mohsen #Shekari and #Majidreza #Rahnavard, protesters who had participated in the anti government rallies following the death of #Mahsa #Amini in police custody, for wearing her headscarf too loosely.
