Abdolreza Davari: The Guidance Patrol is a product of Ahmadinejad’s government.
Abdolreza Davari, advisor to the Minister of Interior during Ahmadinejad’s government, wrote in a tweet about the start of the Guidance Patrol’s activities in Iran.
The Guidance Patrol is a product of Resolution No. 427 of the Public Culture Council dated 2005-01-03, titled ‘Strategies for Promoting the Culture of Chastity and Hijab,’ in which the duties of organizations, including the police force, for dealing with improper hijab were announced. The key to reforming the Guidance Patrol lies with the Minister of Culture as the head of the Public Culture Council.
