An Iranian woman will not face charges after she stripped to her underwear in an apparent anti-hijab protest at a university in Tehran, Iranian authorities said.

A video went viral on social media in November capturing the moment the woman undressed on a university campus before being forcibly detained.

A spokesperson for the Iranian judiciary said the woman had been treated in hospital and returned to her family.

Her arrest drew international condemnation, with Amnesty International among those calling for her immediate and unconditional release.
