"She was tortured": Mahsa Amini's family speaks out amid Iran protests
CBSN
The family of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who died in the custody of Iran's morality police, is speaking out as the anti-government protests sparked by her death grow louder.
As the country awaits a final coroner's report, Amini's father said she was beaten by the morality police, the enforcers of Iran's strict dress code. Amini's head covering was reportedly too loose when she was taken into custody.
Her cousin, Erfan Mortezaei, who lives in self-exile in Iraq, believes she was tortured.
