Iran has suspended the operations of cafes and restaurants that did not comply with Islamic values and public morality rules. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to the “Azad Iran” Telegram channel, 11 establishments in the city of Borujerd in Lorestan province were closed for violating hijab regulations and holding mixed-gender celebrations. Borujerd city police chief Mehdi Mahdaviy stated that during the inspection process, violations of Islamic norms were identified in these establishments.
As a result, their activities were temporarily suspended within the framework of a program to strengthen public order and ensure social discipline. Mahdaviy emphasized that these measures aim to protect Islamic values in the country and strictly enforce moral standards in public places.
Each establishment will be held administratively responsible if it violates public morality and religious rules. In recent months, the Iranian government has intensified control over cases of non-compliance with hijab regulations.
Consequently, dozens of cafes, beauty salons, and shopping centers have been temporarily closed in several cities. According to local sources, these strict measures have sparked debates among some citizens.
While officials emphasize the protection of national values, some citizens argue that such control restricts personal freedoms. The Iranian government, however, remains firm in its position, stating that any establishment violating religious rules will be closed and held accountable.
