A Protesting Student is a Suspended Student!

Around 40 students in Amir Kabir University are suspended because of participation in protests. These students are banned from classes, dining rooms, and dorms. Amir Kabir is one of the top universities for engineering studies in Iran.

At the University of Tehran, music and mathematics students went on a strike to protest against professors’ salary cut-offs.

K.N. University of Technology also announced that moral cases and students’ violation of regulations (AKA protests) are in process, and soon, the results will be announced.

New Hijab Regulations

While the protests are still ongoing, a new set of acts from the regime are now in place to force women representatives into hijab. 

Hakimeh Ghafouri, a parliament member in Tabriz, recommends banning people with improper hijab from buses and taxis.

If the driver or passenger of a car does not observe the "proper hijab", they will receive a warning SMS and if they repeat it, they will be fined and their vehicle will also be impounded until they participate in some "training classes" and give a written guarantee that they will observe the hijab. If the driver is a man, these training classes are about "encouraging good and forbidding evil". It means the driver should have enforced proper hijab in their vehicle and if they don’t know how, they should learn. 

During recent protests, the sending of these text messages was stopped for a short time, but it's now resumed on a large scale.
