The Iranian authorities are going to install cameras on public roads to be able to detect who does not comply with the “hijab law”, which requires women to cover themselves with a veil.
“The police will use innovative tools and smart cameras on public roads to avoid tensions and conflicts with compatriots (…) to identify people who violate the “hijab and public chastity law””, This is stated in a police statement, which was quoted by the Mizan news agency and Farda, an American radio station broadcasting in Farsi, which is part of Radio Liberty.
The advanced technology of these cameras will allow women to be warned when they are not wearing the hijab and be informed “of the legal consequences of repeating this crime.”
Second Hossein Jalali, one of the most radical members of the Farvardin Islamic Council, women who do not comply with the “hijab law” can be fined, as well as deprived of their driver’s license, passport or Internet access.
The police also left a message to radical groups not to attack or harass women who do not wear the hijab.
