In a new attempt to intimidate and dissuade the public from becoming bold enough to rise up against the repression in Iran, the suppressive mullahs’ regime has ordered the police to impound cars on the streets of the capital with women drivers or passengers not observing its imposed ’dress code.’   
“If a (female) driver in a car is poorly veiled or has taken her veil off, the vehicle will be seized in accordance with the law,” the head of Tehran’s traffic police, General Teymour Hosseini, was quoted as saying by the official ISNA news agency.
He added that any woman who had her car seized would need to obtain a court order before getting it back.
Since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, wearing a veil in public has been mandatory for all women in Iran.
But recent decades have seen a loosening of the rules governing female dress and many women in Tehran dress in a way that is far removed from the strict clothing regulations in other observant Muslim countries such as Saudi Arabia.
“Unfortunately, some streets of the capital have come to resemble fashion salons,” Iran’s judiciary chief Sadegh Larijani said this week, questioning the “tolerance” that has led to “such a situation”.
