Protest against bassijis dress relaxation in Tehran Wednesday, May 7 .
Most Conservatives have multiplied actions in favor of stricter monitoring of dress codes and respect the hijab. Wednesday, May 7, a group of bassijis rallied on Fatemi Square in central Tehran and continued his march towards the square Valiasr. The demonstrators chanted slogans such as "Man! where's your dignity? Where is the hijab your wife? "Or" Death to those who have no hijab!
"Theyended their meeting with a statement demanding the prosecution of those or those who do not respect the dress code, as well as strengthening the actions of the vice squad, responsible for the control of Iranian hijab. The number of protesters was estimated at "hundreds", according to agency
theofficial newsIRNA, and "four thousand" as the conservative website Serat.
This event seems an explicit warning at the moderate president, Hassan Rouhani, who advocates a more flexible approach regarding dress controls. However, the government's response was quick to fall. "The state does not agree with the protests without permission, and that held Wednesday was illegal," announced the Governor of Tehran, Hossein Hashemi.
With the approach of summer, hot, the season when the Iranians are less likely to comply with the dress code, the war is declared between the government and more conservative.
