Women in Iran will still be required to wear the hijab under Islamic Republic law, even if the country's government decides to abolish the religious police who were in charge of enforcing the dress code.

In addition, Iran's parliament and the Supreme Council of Cultural Revolution are studying the topic of hijab, and the result will be announced in 15 days, Montazeri announced on Thursday.

However, it is unclear how things will change as a result of these moves by the government. The announcements do not indicate that the mandatory hijab rule in Iran is over, as wearing the hijab is still mandatory under Islamic Republic law.

NIAC member Negar Mortazavi is part of IR Regime propaganda machine, Regime pays her to fool the media, Do Not Be FOOLED, be the voice of voiceless oppositions.

In Iran, women can do social activities with minimal covering. manage and walk safely on the street at all hours of the day and night without being assaulted. Security that is not in the West.

how can ABC ignore the biggest scandal in US history? Collusion to silence a legitimate news story days before an election. The country needs to wake up. TWITTERGATE

Guess I can take the tomatoe plants back outside. Crisis averted

GMA GMA is owned by Disney.

Just a little information for those of you who are not familiar with the Islamic regime of Iran. The female morality police who look like crows with their black chador were the hookers and prostitutes during the previous regime. Pretty ironic!!

Just men ruling women. Hijab is not in Quran

These poor women! Mt heart goes out to them!

The leaders aren’t serious—they will bring the mullah back as soon as things die down.

Iran protesters call for 3 days strike staring today, to stand against corrupted Islamic Republic regime. The regime killed over 400 protesters and arrested about 19000 to prove how desperate is. Please stop negotiating over oil or anything with the murderous regime. MahsaAmini

Morality police is still on whatever the regime pretends.

They have the hijab police and we have the mask police. Same thing

If It’s ok with leftists, it’s ok with Iran.

This is fake news. Religious police (Morality Police) are still active. Please don't fall for this fake news and remove this from your website as well. __Injaneb96 Please take a look if possible. Thank you.

It is either tokenism or lies. Because if wearing hijab is still required under religious law, how will they enforce that without a religious police? Some other body by a different name. Don't be fooled by this nonsense IranRevolution2022

Nothing about this Revolution is about morality police. Context is important. Iranians want regime change. They want these murderers gone. That’s it. Plain and simple. Any other framing is just wrong.

In India - certain groups of women fighting to wear Hijab in co-ed Schools .. For them Freedomofexpression is to wear hijab in schools when India doesn’t stop them to wear what they want at public places or worship places!!

They have a religious police. Jealous? tedcruz prageru FoxNews GOP We all can tell you want this in America. The gig is up!

who cares yet these same women go to other countries and demand they have the right to cover their heads . Who cares

Apakah dengan tidak berhijab iman akan luntur,atau dengan berhijab menunjukkan kuatnya iman. Itu lah subtansi beragama.

Freedom should be given, they should wear what they want to wear, men should not decide what to wear or not by women

This news is propaganda from the regime. It's irrelevant to the situation. The regime is desperate and that's why they published this to fool western media so they do not follow the news from Iran! It's all a big lie! Nothing is changed!!! How come you don't see and understand it

so what? What's your problem ABC? It's Iran not Australia. Shut up.

I think some women should be forced to wear hijabs in the US. The UGLY ones!

Yes, this news has not been officially confirmed at all. But if that happens, it won't change anything. Hijab is still mandatory and the regime is corrupt and murderous, we don't want reforms, we want regime change. IranRevolution2022 Mehsamini

So they will probably just give it a different name? '...protesters and activists have been warning that it's very likely authorities will rebrand the morality police...as the morality police was itself a rebranded mission of a former police division name 'Sar-allah Patrol.''

Gona stay in denial over the Biden laptop ABC?

People in the west also are required to wait until the green light before they cross the street but that doesnt meant having a moral jaywalking police beating people with sticks for not following it is a particulary good idea.

Ask georgesoros for help

It will just be the continuation of the subjugation of Iranian women by another means.

We gave them the money they needed when they were in trouble. Thanks Obama.

Iranian revolutionaries are fighting for regime change, not a merely reform of the morality police. The media & observers should not overhype these announcements from Iran's system which are meant to divide revolutionaries & deflect international pressure.MahsaAmini

They should be allowed to wear whatever it is they want to wear. Forever 21, Aeropostale, Nasty Gal, Old Navy, Macy's, and a few others should set up shop. (Bad Girls plays in the background)

What about the stolen election? Hacks

No way, it should be the woman who decides wtf she wears , not some old senile cleric.

You don't appear to be getting many likes these days. You should try presenting all newsworthy items to your viewers. Why are you not covering elonmusk's exposé? Political bias, perhaps?

Eliminate Islam

It doesn’t matter what they do or decide. The Islamic republic must and will be eliminated. That is the only likelihood for a FreeIran
