Hossein Alaei, former commander of the IRGC, questions whether methods like the mandatory patrol align with Islamic and religious principles.
Hossein Alaei, former commander of the IRGC’s naval forces and a university professor, mentions that such methods remind some people of Reza Shah’s harsh actions, where the police and security forces would forcibly remove veils from Iranian women’s heads. He suggests that parliament members should review laws that lead to such behaviors and disasters.
Everyone remembers the Kahrizak disaster and the case of Sattar Beheshti. Additionally, the video of a mother standing in front of a morality patrol vehicle, shouting that her daughter is ill, is unforgettable.
Now, the question arises: has the performance of the mandatory patrol increased women’s interest in better dressing, or has it prompted some to react oppositely and oppose compulsory dress codes?
The nature of all humans is opposed to the rule of force, oppression, and compulsion.
