Head of security for the Tehran municipality, Alireza Adeli, this is not the first time two of the women caught will be doing so.

‘The ban is aimed at preserving their honor, because the stadium’s atmosphere, commotion, and crowds are no place for them. Women who wish to watch the match can do so on TV, which broadcasts the games and gives everyone a way to watch them live.’
Among the other seemingly innocent acts that can result in being reprimanded include women uploading a photograph of them without a headscarf and posting a video of themselves singing.
