A group of about 130 women\u2019s rights activists who gathered in Deneshjoo Park in central Tehran to celebrate International Women\u2019s Day were brutally beaten by the police. As soon as the program started with distributing some brochures and chanting Iran\u2019s women\u2019s movement song, the police informed the attendants that their gathering is illegal and they should leave the premises.

Simin Behbahani, the Iranian elderly famous poet was among the people who have been beaten. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
