Authorities have tightened security across the country, to try to prevent a new wave of street demonstrations. Overnight, Anti Government chants were heard in a number of towns and cities, while slogans have been sprayed in public spaces. Baran abbasi from bbc persian, has been looking at whats changed for iranian women in the past year. Confronted by supporters of the regime for refusing to wear a headscarf in public. This iranian woman remains defiant, despite her picture being taken and being threatened with legal action. Scenes from the streets of karaj a city near irans capital. Its a rebellious act, unthinkable before last years uprising. The unrest was sparked by the death of mahsa amini in custody. The 22 year old was arrested by the Morality Police, accused of not adhering to the strict dress code rules. Chanting her death sparked nationwide protests, which continued for months, with women taking a leading role. One year on, The Mass Street Protests may have died down, but the determination of many iranians to push for Regime Change is unwavering. Mariam took part in the demonstrations since the first day. She says last years events have already brought about fundamental changes to society. I think its like something that has been broken. It cant be the same. People are angry. People are tired. There is no hope forfuture and every family has someone in prison or someone has been killed. So it cant be life like before. Many women no longer adhere to the strict dress code, even some who grew up in religious families. Translation the authorities used the hijab as a pretext to shed the blood of many innocent people. It made me very upset at that point. I made a decision to remove my hijab. But the regime is hitting back. A new draft law unveiled by parliament brings in much harsher punishments for women and girls who fail to wear the hijab. Screaming the Morality Police that had largely retreated immediately after the death of mahsa amini are now back on the streets, arresting women they decide are violating the hijab rules. Also, women often face abuse and angerfrom more conservative iranians. This cctv footage that went viral on social media shows a man throwing a tub of yoghurt over the heads of two female customers, who were not wearing the headscarf. But those like mariam, who continue to publicly disobey the law, hope for a free society for everyone in the future. If this regime is completely overthrown from its roots, it can happen that women live together in peace, no matter what they believe. I hope someday can be that day in our country. Baran abassi, bbc news. We can show you the Statement Issued by the mother of mahsa amini on the First Anniversary of her death. In it she says live now to bbc persian� s jiyar gol. How has the roommate how has the iranian dyas pratt reacted diaspora reacted . Trafalgar square, downing street,. I can hear many people here are carrying that picture of those who were killed during last years process. People who have been detained and are in prison. One slogan i am hearing over and over again are designate Iranian Revolutionary guards as a terrorist organisation, they are asking for uk government to put Iranian Revolutionary guards on terrorist list. How will the iranian authorities view these scenes . They have shown on television and media that they are not happy about any gathering of any sort outside the country. That is why they have been discouraging people to join the protests. I am been discouraging people to join the protests. Iam in been discouraging people to join the protests. I am in contact with many people inside the country, in mahsa aminis hometown. It looks like a military zone. Heavy concentration of military and Security Forces. Every corner of the streets there is police stationed there. Last year the epicentre of there. Last year the epicentre of the protests was that region. It seems the iranian government wants to make sure that would not be repeated again. Plenty more coverage and analysis of the past year on our website. The authorities in Eastern Libya are sealing off the stricken city of derna to enable rescue teams to get in more easily following the devastating flash floods. They said the area would be closed off to civilians and that only libyan and International Rescue teams would have access. Theres been calls for the complete evacuation of survivors from derna. Although Rescue Efforts have been scaled up, the Aid Operation so far has been described as chaotic. Anna foster sent us this from the port of derna a short while ago. This is what remains of the waterfront area, here in derna. You can see what a mess it is. You can also really see the power of that water that cascaded through the city. It has broken up sea defences and tossed them around. There are cars smashed and dropped on top. Theres a whole mixture of floating broken wood, household appliances, tyres, its all bobbing in the stagnant water. There is a really rich and distinctive smell of decay and death hanging in the air, particularly in this area. Just this morning, i was talking to a turkish rescue team, because all the time, there are Recovery Workers patrolling up and down the water area here. When bodies wash back in, which they are still doing all the time, they retrieve them and try and give them some kind of dignity. The turkish team told me just over here this morning, they recovered three bodies from in among the debris and dirt and took them away. They say, even now almost a week after this happened, bodies are still washing up here at the port in derna. A 14 year old has died in a stabbing in northern manchester last night. Another 14 year old boy was arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody. Our correspondent yunus mulla is at the scene for us with the latest. This area remains a crime scene, you can see the forensics tent, also a number of Police Officers. They were first called here yesterday evening after reports that a boy had been stabbed. He was taken to hospital where he died from his injuries. Today a number of this boys friends have arrived here to lay flowers, along with members of the community, clearly in shock at what has taken place here. I spoke to one resident earlier, who arrived at the scene shortly after the incident happened. I could hear it, i was like, what is going on . And my electricity was finished, i was coming to get the electricity. I could see there was a big fight, kids were just fighting with each other. One kid was screaming, lets call an ambulance, there was blood on that corner. Itsjust so bad. They have imposed a section 60 order, that effectively gives them greater stop and Search Powers, they say they are doing this to reassure the community and members of the public, they only do it when it is necessary and proportionate. The aim is to reduce any future potential violence behaviour, and to prevent any other serious incidents. I have spoken to a few of the ia year olds friends, who say he was a caring boy, always had a smile on his face. The family Liaison Officer is comforting his family at this difficult time. They are appealing for information or any witnesses to what may have taken place here. As far as the wider Police Investigation is concerned, they want to hear from anyone able to help with their inquiry. But they do have a 14 year old boy in custody, he was arrested on suspicion of murder. Londons Metropolitan Police has agreed to pay a settlement to a man who suffered a brain injury in 2010, when he was struck on the head by an officer. Alfie meadows was 20 when he was hurt during a protest against student tuition fees. The settlement hasnt been disclosed, but its believed it may run to six figures. My colleague Vincent Mcaviney has more. The 9th of december 2010, Alfie Meadows was protesting against the tripling of University Tuition fees in Central London he was 20 years old at the time. He was studying philosophy at the university of middlesex, and he was struck on the head by a police baton. He required emergency life saving treatment. Since then he has had years of trauma after the assault which has deeply affected his studies, career and well being. Despite a number of investigations between 2010 and 2019, Metropolitan Police were never able to identify who the officer was who struck alfie or bring any accountability. But alfie has had to face an ongoing legal battle, cgarged with disorder, faced numerous trials over the past decade, before being acquitted last year. Considering all that has gone before, considering the image we can see on our screen, how has Alfie Meadows responded to the met . He brought legal action himself. In 2013 he sought damages for assault and battery, false imprisonment, breach of human rights. Only this summer has that case concluded. He has received an apology from the met and an undisclosed six figure sum in damages. In a letter the met acknowledged that alfie was protesting peacefully and not acting aggressively towards any Police Officer and that the baton strike that almost killed him was dangerous and unjustifiable. The met say they also regret not be able to identify who the officer was who struck him. In a Channel 4 News interview alfie says that although he has won, the pain he has suffered has made it incredibly difficult period in his life, he says he has lost years fighting this case, with a serious impact on his mental health, and also a lot of pain for friends and family around him.
