Funnily enough, Holliday Grainger did lobby me for a case set in Paris! But for me, the plot always comes first, and the settings have to fit it, rather than the other way round.

Despite Taliban's ruthless suppression of female protesters, the courageous women of Afghanistan took to the streets of Kabul today, demanding their basic human rights.

RT by @jk_rowling: In Mashhad police tried to arrest a Mother for not wearing her hijab. But her son defended her. The police handcuffed him to take him away. People got united-- forcing the police to release him. This is an example of people’s resistance against the regime.

RT by @jk_rowling: The Islamic Republic officials threatened women by announcing that if they take off their hijabs, they will be identified by face recognition cameras and arrested. This is how brave women of Iran responded:

RT by @jk_rowling: Dozens of shops and restaurants in Iran have been shut down for providing services to women who choose not to wear hijab. After the continued civil disobedience of Iranian women against the mandatory hijab laws, the Iranian government has now forcibly closed those places. The struggle of Iranian women these days has become the biggest challenge of the Islamic Republic.
