The
Chastity
Monument
to
the
honorable
martyr
and
teacher,
Set
Khalida
Umm
Montazer,
is
located
in
Al-Tayaran
Square
at
the
end
of
Al-Saadi
Street,
near
Al-Baradiya
Bridge,
near
the
Basra
Retirement
Department
on
Al-Wafoud
Street,
and
near
the
Minawi

The
story
of
the
chastity
monument
to
the
martyr:
In
Basra,
there
was
a
virtuous
woman
who
worked
as
a
teacher
at
Bint
Al-Huda
School
for
Girls.
Her
name
is
Khaleda
Turki
Imran
(Umm
Muntazer).
She
was
driving
her
car
to
her
workplace
on
April
4,
2016,
and
as
soon
as
she
stopped,
a
car
bomb
exploded
near
her.
Her
car
caught
fire.
So
she
got
out
of
the
car
and
her
body
was
engulfed
in
flames.
When
she
saw
that
the
fire
had
burned
her
clothes,
she
was
overcome
with
shame
and
jealousy.
She
did
not
want
her
body
to
be
exposed
in
front
of
people.
So
she
ran
back
to
her
car,
which
was
burning
with
fire.
She
opened
the
door
and
sat
in
it.
Someone
shouted
at
her.
The
police
officers,
while
he
was
crying,
come
out.
I
am
like
your
brother.
I
will
cover
you
with
my
shirt,
but
she
refused...
and
preferred
to
burn
her
body
with
fire...
rather
than
for
people
to
see
it...
The
Iraqis
called
her
a
martyr
of
chastity
and
honor
and
erected
a
memorial
for
her
commemorating
her
memory
in
Al-Tayaran
Square
in
Basra...
where
they
preserved
her
burned
car.
They
turned
her
into
a
statue.
