Iranian dissident politician funeral attended hundreds people
You're referring to the funeral of a prominent Iranian dissident politician. Here's what I found:
The funeral of Ebrahim Yazdi, a prominent Iranian dissident politician and founder of the Freedom Movement of Iran, was attended by hundreds of people in Tehran on August 8, 2017. Yazdi, who was 85 years old at the time of his death, was a vocal critic of the Iranian government and had spent several years in exile in the United States.
Yazdi was a key figure in the Iranian Revolution of 1979, which overthrew the Shah's government. He was a close ally of Ayatollah Khomeini, the leader of the revolution, but later became disillusioned with the Islamic Republic's human rights record and its suppression of political dissent.
Despite the risks, hundreds of people attended Yazdi's funeral, including many former political prisoners and dissidents who had been inspired by his courage and commitment to democracy and human rights. The funeral procession was led by a group of women who wore black chadors and carried flowers, a symbol of their solidarity with Yazdi and his family.
The Iranian government, however, did not allow Yazdi's family to hold a formal funeral ceremony, and instead, they were forced to hold a small, private ceremony at his home. The government also banned any public gatherings or protests in connection with Yazdi's death.
Yazdi's funeral was seen as a symbol of resistance against the Iranian government's repression of political dissent and a testament to the enduring legacy of the Freedom Movement of Iran.
