Official Warns of Riots Triggered by Regime’s Crackdown on Women<\/h3>\n

\"Hijab-Enforcement-Plan\"<\/p>\n

Hossein Mousavi Tabrizi, a state-affiliated cleric in the Qom seminary warned that cracking down on the hijab issue might backfire in society and lead to riots.<\/p>\n

On July 24, Tabrizi told the Mostaghel<\/a> daily: “Playing with the hijab issue, canceling a concert in Ahvaz by several vans, in addition to the unbridled high prices, this all means trying to combine the crises of 2009 and 2019, which means merging the dissatisfaction of the middle class with the underprivileged classes! Given the continuation of these kinds of encounters (the crackdown by the moral police), are we going to witness the rebellion of the middle and weak class of society?”<\/p>\n

“Having said that, we will definitely witness these riots,” Tabrizi warned. “Officials should pay attention and stop these behaviors. The people have become aggressive because of the skyrocketing prices, so the officials should be cautious. It is better not to put pressure on the people on other issues while the country is facing serious problems.”<\/p>\n
