Police in Iran have arrested 49 people this week in a crackdown on ’satanic’ Western-style clothes and haircuts.

It is part of a nation-wide campaign to stop the spread of Western cultural influence in the Islamic republic, where strict dress codes are enforced.

‘Police confronted rascals and thugs who appeared in public wearing satanic fashions and unsuitable clothing,’ said Qaemshahr city police commander Mahmoud Rahmani.

He added that five barber shops were shut and 20 more warned for ‘promoting Western hairstyles’.

In the past, such crackdowns have lasted a few weeks or months, but the current campaign was launched in 2007 and has not let up.

It includes measures against men sporting spiky ‘Western’ hairstyles or women
wearing tight trousers and high boots.

Women are supposed to wear clothing that covers their hair and disguises the shape of their bodies.

‘Some individuals, not knowing what culture they are imitating, put on clothing that was designed by the enemies of this country,’ Mr Rahmani said.

‘The enemies of this country are trying to divert our youth and breed them the way they want and deprive them of a healthy life,’ he added.

  • They looks funny wearing that satanic clothes.I saw other muslim people wearing like that but I guess it was their tradition. And base on there religion women must covered their hair but I don't know why?
  • The reason why Islam isn't evolving into a better country is their views, how does someone live peacefully when they knew that there's a gun pointing on their heads and eyes watching their move, they prevent joy and freedom of people living in their country.. what a pity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Lets see, a tent or a cute sweater, skinny jeans and knee high boots? I feel for the fashion-repressed, honestly. Your fashion is your personal expression and as long as you're covering the fun parts- there shouldn't be a problem! Islam takes all the fun out of life!

  • The media and leftists like to play down the threat of a nuclear armed Iran. The President of Iran is a deadly serious about Islam. As he is awaiting for the mahdi to come back to earth. Chaos must grip the planet before this happens. A nuke would sure do that.
