Following the death of 22-year-old Iranian Mahsa Amini, the British government has imposed sanctions on Iran's "morality police" as violent crackdowns on protests continue.
The Foreign Office said it was imposing asset freezes and travel bans on the "morality police in its entirety, as well as both its chief, Mohammed Rostami Cheshmeh Gachi, and the head of the Tehran division, Haj Ahmed Mirzaei."
Also on the list are Gholamreza Soleimani, head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Basij force; Hassan Karami, commander of the NAJA special forces unit of the Iranian police; and Hossein Ashtari, commander-in-chief of the Iranian police.
