-- Tehran -- Iranian police have closed more than 20 barbers' shops in the capital Tehran.The mullahs may find that, not everybody is overly enthusiastic about turning the historical clock back to, say... the middle-ages.
The authorities say the barbers were encouraging un-Islamic behaviour by offering Western hairstyles, tattooing and also eyebrow-plucking for men.
The move is part of an annual campaign against what is known locally as bad hijab, or un-Islamic clothing, that this year is also targeting men.
I'm thinking "eyebrow plucking..."
May not be their biggest problem here.
