    Suntanned women face arrest in Iran

    LONDON - Suntanned women and girls who are like “walking mannequins” will be arrested in Iran, Tehran’s police chief has warned.

    The warning comes close on the heels of a hardline Iranian cleric claiming that immodestly dressed women disturbed young men and caused earthquakes.
    “The public expects us to act firmly and swiftly if we see any social misbehaviour by women, and men, who defy our Islamic values. In some areas of north Tehran we can see many suntanned women and young girls who look like walking mannequins.
    “We are not going to tolerate this situation and will first warn those found in this manner and then arrest and imprison them,” The Telegraph Wednesday quoted Brig Hossien Sajedinia, Tehran’s police chief, as saying.
    A preacher has also told the residents of Iran’s capital Tehran to leave the city.
    “Go on the streets and repent for your sins. A holy torment is upon us. Leave town,” said Ayatollah Aziz Khoshvaqt during a recent sermon in northern Tehran.

    It's their own issues and if the people there don't do anything about these type of treatments, it's hard for outsiders to have too much say in it. This it's another one of those stupid things we hear about.
