Mahsa Amini was arrested by the Iranian morality police for wearing her hijab 'improperly', but collapsed and died in custody a few days later. Her death sparked huge international outrage and protest.

In the UK, the Iranian community continues to turn out weekly to show solidarity with the movement in Iran, spearheaded by women and teenagers, demanding fundamental rights for women and pushing for a change in Iranian leadership.

We join part of the British movement, an activist group called United4Mahsa, to see how members are showing support and spreading awareness about the situation in Iran.
