Sadaf Khadem became the first Iranian woman to compete in an official boxing match three years ago in France. But she cancelled her return home after rumours of an arrest warrant swirled around her taking part without a hijab. The 27-year-old has since spoken out in support of global demonstrations, which started after the death of Mahsa Amin. But Khadem says a digital revolution might be more effective than street protests.
