Relatives of Armita Garavand say the Iranian teen remains in a coma after reportedly being assaulted by the morality police for not wearing the mandatory hijab earlier this month. “There has been no change, positive or negative, in her condition,” a source close to the family told RFE/RL’s Radio Farda on October 12. A hospital source told Radio Farda that Garavand has vital signs “and is not brain dead.” The source close to the family added that family members were allowed to enter her ICU room in a rare chance to see the 16-year-old student in person and not behind glass.
