Under Islamic law in force in Iran since the 1979 revolution, women must wear loose clothing and a hijab, a veil covering the hair and neck. "The law must be respected if the chastity of society is to be preserved," demonstrator Fatemeh Rahmani told AFP. A**ther woman at the gathering, Zeinab Moeini, said: "The morality police arrest women who create problems and 'bad hijab' in Iranian society." Media reports said similar rallies were staged across the country on Saturday.
