 Tehran, Iran, Oct. 10 – A Majlis (Parliament) deputy from the
central city of Isfahan told reporters that there was an urgent need to act
against “corruption and mal-veiling” by women in society, state media
reported on Monday.
“In recent years we have seen a great number of violations [of the dress
code]. How longer do we have to witness such behaviour?”, Hojjatoleslam
Mohammad-Taghi Rahbar said.
“In recent years much of the Islamic customs in offices, hospitals,
organizations, universities, and air schools have not been adhered to”, the
mid-ranking cleric added.
Rahbar said authorities should immediately deal with violators of the
dress-code starting in the holy Muslim month of Ramadan which began last
Tuesday.
