Iranian authorities have arrested former President Akbar’s daughter Hashemi Rafsanjani on charges of inciting protests, Tasnim news agency reported, amid a wave of demonstrations across the Islamic Republic against the death of a young woman, Mahsa Amini, while she was in the custody of the vice police.

The agency said that “Fizeh Hashemi was arrested in eastern Tehran by security forces for inciting rioters to protest in the streets.”

Iranians continue their demonstrations for the twelfth night in a row to protest the death of Amini after she was arrested by the vice police for not following the Islamic Republic’s strict dress code.

Faeze Hashemi, a former lawmaker and women’s rights activist, has previously clashed with Iranian authorities and was charged in July with advocacy against the country and blasphemy in social media comments.

Faeze Hashemi was sentenced to six months in prison in 2012 for “propaganda against the Islamic Republic”.
