In Iran, women will be severely punished for violating the hijab

“Courts should impose additional sanctions such as deportation, bans on certain professions and workplace closures,” the agency said, referring to the administration of the justice system.

Iran was gripped by a widespread protest movement after 9/16 died in custody Mahsa Amini, 22 years old. She was accused of violating the dress code.

Since the protests, the good police, whose duties include enforcing the hijab requirements, have been less visible and women have taken to the streets without the mandatory head covering.

However, the authorities have made it clear that with the new year there will be no more tolerance, but the police have warned that women should also wear the headscarf in the car.

Several cafés and restaurants serving women with bare heads have been closed in recent weeks.
