Sep 21, 2023
Tehran [Iran], September 21: Iranian women who flout the strict Islamic dress code mandating head coverings and modest clothing would face up to 10 years' prison under a bill passed on Wednesday. The push to step up penalties comes a year after a wave of protests sparked by the death of 22-year-old MahsaAmini, who had been arrested for allegedly breaching the rules.
