Teheran cracks down on “moral vices”
The death of a girl, arrested by Iranian police because she was in the company of a male friend, is declared a “suicide”. Iran’s Supreme Leader approves the list of “vices” to be fought, among them makeup and hats.
Teheran (AsiaNews/Agencies) – Iran’s government daily’s today published a list of moral vices which police are called to counter, among them make up and hats in the place of veils. The officers added that they are also bent on cracking down on “decadent” films, drugs and alcohol.
This is the latest move in a ferocious campaign against non Islamic customs, the harshest of the last ten years. Moreover it has confirmed the support of the nations’ Supreme Leader, ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who last week urged the public security authority to combat “social vices”.
In the last six months, tens of thousands of women have been arrested or “warned” by police regarding their dress. Only yesterday, a girl died in prison where she had been taken by police for not having respected Islamic morals.
The girl was arrested because she was found in the company of a boy in a park. According to the police the girl committed suicide, but this theory is doubted by reformist press and one deputy.

Suicide my arse.
Remember class: Islam = "Religion Of Peace"
We must ask Huma to discuss the matter of makeup, images, and immoral dresses the next time they have their nightly girl-girl pillow talk.
Except Hillary doesn’t own a dress.
She may have been a virgin when she was associated into this hellhole, guarantee she wasn’t when she was buried.
When are the idiots (average citizen) in Iran going to do something about such atrocities? Talk about lack of balls … and I speak from a country that won its independence against greater odds.
“When are the idiots (average citizen) in Iran going to do something about such atrocities?” .............. Its not an easy thing to do when the bad guys have all the guns. Supply the good guys and they will take the necessary action. However, if they do, be ready for another “Spain 1936”, both sides will have outsider volunteer brigades for sure.
I believe that back in the late 1700s, the British had the advantage in soldiers, weapons and public opinion. Yet, through perseverance and ideals, we won. Can be done, otherwise we would probably not be having this conversation … mayhap I misspeak, we could be having this conversation, but with a British accent.
We can’t supply the good guys because everyone in Iran, good and bad sees us as not only bad but “the great Satan”TM. The truth is, their are no “good” Muslims, as in Muslims who are on our side. they would all like to see us dead, the only difference is that younger Muslims would like to have fun and dance on our graves afterward, while older Muslims would prefer to lash themselves and chant themselves into a religious frenzy.
