Nika Shakarami, 17, was killed in Tehran by #Iran's security forces during the recent #IranProtests.
Authorities did not hand over her body to her family for ten days.
God knows what they had done to her...

Powerful message from #NikaShakarami's mother who refuses to be silenced about Nika's killing by #Iran's regime.
"Today was your birthday, my dear!" she says in this video. "Today, I say congratulations on becoming a martyr."

#Nika_Shakarami's family says her whereabouts was unknown for 10 days before they found her body in a morgue in the capital.
“When we went to identify her, they didn’t allow us to see her body, only her face for a few seconds," her aunt said.

#Iran's state TV claims #Nika_Shakarami fell off a building to her death, denying she was killed by state police.
Report says she fell after entering a building at 12:30 am. Yet the image shown is in daylight.
So no one heard a scream or saw the body that night?

#Iran's state TV claims #Nika_Shakarami's backpack and mobile phone ended up on a girder after her fall from the rooftop.
Question: How is it possible for her backpack and mobile phone to end up there so neatly?
Were they not placed there for the state TV report?

#Iran's state TV interviewed the manager of the building they claim #Nika_Shakarami fell to her death from.
The manager shows two "images" during the interview, which are clearly video clips. However, the footage was not aired.
Why? What are they hiding?

A closer look at the image of #NikaShakrami's dead body in the alley where #Iran's state TV claims she fell to from a rooftop shows blood on both sides of her body.
—Blood colors are different.
—Blood on both sides could indicate she was dragged.
This leads to more questions.
#Iran's state TV claims #NikaShakrami entered a building at 12:30 am on Sep 21.
Tasnim news agency (close to #IRGC) claims she entered the building at 10 pm on Sep 20.
More indication of the regime's lies.
#Iran's state TV aired this footage from a security camera to back their claim of #NikaShakrami entering the building at night.
A closer look tells us that this video footage is not authentic and has been doctored.

#NikaShakrami had died some of her blonde.
The footage shown by #Iran's state TV shows an individual talking on a phone. Yet the individual does not resemble Nika.
And the video footage shows no backpack.
More questions.

Still images of #Iran's state TV shows a black line over the text.
Why? What are the authorities hiding?
Another images shows the letters "AM03" which could be "CAM03". This part of the footage was probably zoomed.

If #NikaShakrami's death was from falling from a rooftop, why does this burial authorization letter published by the BBC state her death as resulting from "numerous blows by a hard object"?
Why was her family not allowed to see her body for ten days?
#نیکا_شاکرمی
More questions:
—Why have #NikaShakrami's aunt & uncle been arrested? Does #Iran's regime want to silence them?
—Nika had her ID with her. Why did authorities not inform her family for 10 days?
—Why did authorities bury Nika's body in a village without her family's knowledge?
Following the murders of #MahsaAmini and #HadisNajafi, #Iran's regime is going the distance and resorting to lie after lie to cover up the murder of #NikaShakrami.
One more thing about the security camera footage:
At the beginning #Nika_Shakarami is seen with a black mask. Later on in the footage it appears she has a white mask. Notice the yellow arrow.
More signs of doctoring & the regime's lies.
