Female Iranian Chess Player Competes Without Head Covering

An Iranian player taking part in an international chess competition in Kazakhstan is not wearing a hijab for the second day, Reuters reports.

At the FIDE World Rapid and Blitz Chess Championships in Almaty, Kazakhstan, a Reuters reporter said Sara Khadem was competing without a head covering. That act is a violation1 of Iran's laws governing what clothes females should wear.

Iranians have been demonstrating against the country's leadership since mid-September. The demonstrations2 started after 22-year-old Iranian Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini died while being detained by morality police who seized her for "inappropriate attire3." That means she was not wearing legally required or permitted clothing.

Laws concerning hijab wearing have become an important part of the protests. Several sportswomen competing overseas have appeared in public without hijabs.

Khadem was born in 1997. She is also known as Sarasadat Khademalsharieh. She is ranked number 804 in the world, the International Chess Federation4 website says. The website for the December 25 to December 30 event listed her as taking part in both the Rapid and Blitz competitions.

Iranian news services Khabarvarzeshi and Etemad reported earlier this week that Khadem had competed in the event in Almaty without a hijab.
