In Kashmir, schools and businesses have been shuttered ever since the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Iran. For most of that time, thousands of marchers took to the streets all over Kashmir, demanding justice for the killing. The Shia community in Kashmir followed the Ayatollah as a religious leader, and not just as the political leader of Iran. Protesters have faced curfews and police crackdowns.
