Tourists and other foreigners are required to follow Iran’s Islamic dress code, meaning that women in public must cover their heads and conceal their figures or face criminal detention. Authorities handed out some 10,000 warnings in the last ten days of April in an annual pre-summer crackdown that Tehran’s deputy chief of police said would not let up. Plainclothes police will go into action the second week of May to enforce the code. Police have asked travel companies to warn their tourist clients to comply.
