Funny Picture of the Week: Iranian morality police staring at bosom of "immodest" woman
In recent weeks, the Ahmadinejad government has tried to form an alliance with Iranian fundamentalists who demand strict observance and interpretation of Islamic dress and behavior codes. Government has stepped up its pressure on "immodesty" and poor "Hijab" (Islamic cover for women). It was also announced that a central command council is to be formed to define "good and evil" in the society for punishment and reward purposes. In some universities, even "Laughing loudly" and wearing high heels were banned.
A widely distributed image on Facebook shows a morality and anti-vice agent (on left) warning an immodest woman.
