Iran has a new “morality police” unit to observe its citizens. Tehran’s police chief Hossein Sajedinia said the 7,000 officers male and female will make sure women follow Islamic dress codes. They will also stop dangerous driving and noise pollution, he said. Some in Iran consider popular music to be a form of noise pollution. The new police unit appears to be aimed mostly at women. It is enforcing laws that require women to cover their hair and bodies. According to the U.S. State Department, women of all religious groups in Iran are expected to follow “Islamic dress” rules in public. That includes covering their hair and wearing loose clothing that fully covers the body. Members of the “morality police” will not wear police uniforms. This allows them to watch people without showing they are part of the police. Iran’s police chief said morality officers will not take action themselves. Instead they will give information such as license plate numbers to regular police who will follow up on reported violations.
