[1/4] Iranian chess referee Shohreh Bayat looks on during the Women's World Chess Championship in Vladivostok, Russia January 16, 2020. "I don't think it's normal to stay quiet about this," Bayat, 35, told Reuters in a video interview. The Iranian said Dvorkovich asked her to change her attire in Iceland, after another chess official had raised the issue. According to a message seen by Reuters, a senior FIDE official told Bayat she had been removed from the commission because Dvorkovich was "furious" with her. Bayat was awarded the International Women of Courage Award by the United States in 2021 and has since used her platform to advocate for Iranian women.
