Iran to freeze bank accounts of women without hijab

It was proposed in Iran to freeze the bank accounts of women caught wearing or not wearing a hijab.

The statement came from an Iranian MP and a member of the commission of Iran's Islamic Council of Culture Hossein Jalali, Iranian newspaper Donya-e-Eqtesad reports.

The MP is confident that such a measure will help stop the protests in the country, and Iranian women will begin to wear the hijab correctly.

Jalali believes that arresting people for breaking the rules of wearing the hijab is unnecessary. The parliamentarian proposed issuing a written warning to violators and already blocking their bank accounts in the case of repeated violations.
