The issue of hijab has gained more momentum in Iran. The government has issued a strict order regarding this. According to this, if anyone advocates not wearing hijab for women, then strict action will be taken against him. According to this decree, such people will be punished in the criminal court and they will not be able to appeal against the punishment anywhere. The Deputy Attorney General of Iran announced this on Saturday.
Said – like promoting corruption
This decision has come in Iran at a time when a large number of women are seen violating the dress code applicable here. Here malls, restaurants, shops, streets and other public places are seen without hijab. At the same time, in recent months, many female celebs and activists have also posted pictures without hijab on social media. Iranian media quoted Deputy Attorney General Ali Jamadi as saying that the crime of going out without the hijab would be solved through the criminal court. The decisions of this court are final and they are not even heard anywhere. She further said that encouraging others not to wear Hijab is as big a crime as not wearing Hijab herself. It is like promoting corruption in a way.
cameras in public places
Meanwhile, Iranian police installed cameras in public places on Saturday. Through this, women going out without hijab will be identified. Iranian media gave information about this. The police had informed about this plan last week. Let us tell you that in the last few years, protests against Hijab have increased in Iran. Such incidents have increased further after the death of 22-year-old Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini. After Mahsa’s death, security forces have tried to suppress the protest by force.
