Iran for dress code crackdown
Iran is to launch a new crackdown on Monday on slack dressing that targets both men and women whose clothing and haircuts are deemed to be unIslamic, police said, reports AFP.

“The police will act against those whose trousers are too short, have skin-tight coats, shirts with Western logos and Western hairstyles,” said Ahmad Reza Radan, the head of Tehran’s police force.

“We will ask those arrested where they bought their clothes and where they had their hair cut so those outlets can be closed down,” state broadcasting’s website quoted him as saying.

Radan said anyone arrested would receive a warning and have their name added to a list. “If they reoffend, there will be no pardon.”
