Tasnim News Agency: Arrest of Several Football Players at a Mixed Party
Tasnim News Agency reported that several current and former players of one of the prominent Tehran football teams were arrested with a judicial warrant last night at a party in the city of Damavand.
Tasnim stated that some of the players participating in this mixed party appeared to be in an abnormal state due to alcohol consumption.
Iran’s judiciary officials refer to nighttime parties as examples of social disorder and corruption, and since crime prevention is the responsibility of the judiciary in Iran, the country’s law enforcement officers raid such gatherings with judicial orders.
Meanwhile, human rights activists consider holding parties within private homes to be part of individuals’ rights in their personal space.
