Iran launches new crackdown on unIslamic fashion
Jul 23 10:52 AM US/Eastern

Iran on Monday launched a new wave of a moral crackdown against women who "dress like models" and men whose hairstyles are deemed unIslamic, police said.

Tehran's police force dispatched dozens of police cars and minibuses into the early evening rush-hour to enforce the dress rules at major squares in the city centre, an AFP correspondent said.

Women in Iran are obliged to cover all bodily contours and their heads, but in recent years many have pushed the boundaries by showing off bare ankles and fashionably styled hair beneath their headscarves.

Although the April crackdown was the severest such drive in years, some women are still donning figure-hugging coats and skimpy headscarves. The wacky hairdos favoured by some young men in Tehran are also much in evidence.

By renewing the drive, it appears the police want to send a message that they are serious about enforcing the dress rules.

интересно, с одной стороны многие израильтяне возмущаются тем, что Израиль на государстбвенном уровне становится всё менее и менее еврейским, с другой стороны мы тут же становимся либералами, когда Иран закручивает религиозные гайки.

Вот поэтому я не боюсь ѓалахического государства. Наши женщины никакому Санѓедрину не дадут перезакрутить гайки.
