Iran will intensify a crackdown on women flouting Islamic dress laws, a senior policeman has told local media.
Tehran police chief Ahmad Reza Radan said from 23 July twice as many police will tackle "immoral behaviour".
Hundreds of women have already been arrested and some beaten by police since the drive began in April, human rights groups say.
Iranian women are obliged to cover their hair and wear loose-fitting clothes to disguise their figures.
I call it a Barbaric nation and my president called it the Axis of Evil. Why would any country or group be associated with such wickedness???
