Background

Death
editWhile Ghazaleh was filming the vandalism against the government of Iran on September 21, 2022, this person rushed to the governor's building along with the rest of the vandals and during this vandalism, despite the officers' refusal to shoot due to the vandals' resistance, the officers were forced to confront and this person was killed in the process. While Ghazaleh was filming, she had recorded the moment she was hit. This video was widely spread on the Internet, social media, and news agencies.[3]
Preventing from donating her organs
editBefore her death, Ghazaleh had filled out the organ donation application twice and wanted her organs to be donated in case of brain death. Chalabi's family announced that they will donate her body parts, but the government of Iran did not allow her family to do so, and according to Ghazaleh's aunt, the security officers said, "This will make Ghazaleh a legend."[3][4]
