Iran's morality police arrest men for wearing shorts amid clothing crackdown after Mahsa Amini's death.
Iran's morality police are arresting men for wearing shorts during a crackdown on clothing, despite high temperatures. A new bill defines 'improper clothing' for men, including garments that don't cover chest or ankle, leading to arrests and potential bans on leaving the country and using social media for up to two years. This crackdown follows nationwide protests sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini, who died in custody for not observing Iran's strict dress code.
