A
hardline Iranian MP was under mounting pressure to resign on Wednesday
after being caught on camera stating that women and donkeys had no place
in parliament.
Nader Qazipour made the claims during a victory speech after being re-elected as an MP for the city of Urmia.
“Parliament is not the place for donkeys and foals, monkeys and women,” Mr Qazipour, 57, said to the cheers of his group of supporters, largely made up of men.
