Amini, a 22-year-old woman from the city of Saqez died in hospital on September 16, three days after she collapsed at a police station in the capital Tehran where she had been on a visit along with her brother. Her death sparked protests in some parts of Iran, which later turned into riots the country blamed on foreign elements.
Jokar said that Parliament’s Commission of the Country’s Internal Affairs and Councils has evaluated reports already prepared by different organizations and has also demanded the Legal Medicine Organization hand over its own report to the commission on the cause of Amini’s death.
The lawmaker said that the commission will thoroughly examine the Legal Medicine Organization’s report and will then prepare its own by Tuesday.
The commission is preparing a report following an order which Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf issued immediately after Amini’s death to review what had happened to the young woman.
On Friday, Iran's Legal Medicine Organization issued its report on the cause of Mahsa Amini’s death, concluding that she had lost her life due to an underlying illness not by blows to her head, vital organs and limbs of the body.
