Iranian opposition supporters have launched an online campaign to free a student activist accused of dressing as a woman to try to avoid arrest.
Hundreds of men have posted photos of themselves wearing Islamic headscarves as part of the "Be a man" campaign to show solidarity with Majid Tavakoli.
He was arrested during protests in Tehran on Monday and state media showed images of him in headscarf and robes.
The opposition say the pictures were staged in a bid to discredit him.
