Women in Tehran will no longer be arrested for appearing in public with their heads uncovered, almost 39 years after the strict dress code was introduced. The Times UK has reported this. (https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/world/iran-surprises-by-relaxing-islamic-dress-code-for-women-m9wmhkgl7)
 
The surprise announcement was made late last night by police in the Iranian capital and overturns one of the most visible pillars of the Islamic laws under which the country has been governed since 1979.
 
“Those who do not observe the Islamic dress code will no longer be taken to detention centres, nor will judicial cases be filed against them,” said.
