Verdict: Misleading
The video is from 2019 and was taken in Los Angeles, not New York.
Fact Check:
Iranian filmmaker Mohammad Rasoulof fled the country after he was sentenced to eight years in prison after signing a petition asking security forces to restraint themselves when dealing with protests, according to Hollywood Reporter.
Social media users are sharing a video claiming to show the granddaughter of the Ayatollah in a dress.
“Khamenei’s granddaughter is in New York, wearing a dress. Protesters are calling her out: ‘Look at what Khamenei’s granddaughter is wearing while our daughters are being killed because of the hijab in Iran… Every mullah and their relatives are damn filthy hypocrites,” one user wrote.
This claim is misleading. Through a reverse image search, Check Your Fact found that the video is from 2019 and was taken in Los Angeles, not New York.
