Looking at her photos she's definitely pretty
but how is she too pretty to be a council
woman? 27 year old architect Nina Siahkali
Moradi finished 14th among 163candidates in
a city council election in Iran but was told a
week later that all votes for her were nullified.
According to The Times of London, after news
spread that Moradi had been elected, religious
conservatives petitioned to have her
disqualified because she's 'too attractive.' and
would be a cause of distraction. "We don’t
want a catwalk model on the council," a
senior official in Qazvin said.
The review board later claimed Nina was
disqualified not because she was too
attractive but because of her 'non-observance
of Islamic codes'. Some who opposed her
election said she had only been elected
because she is young and attractive.
A law expert in Qazvin, told Iran Wire that the
review board violated election law with its
decision to bar Moradi from taking a seat
