Iran: Prosecutor in Tehran warns sports minister and soccer federation against men at women's matches Tehran's prosecutor sent separate letters to the minister of sports and youth and the head of the soccer federation, citing a failure to observe religious norms and public decency at women's Premier League matches after photos showed spectators without Islamic hijabs. The letters call for approval and implementation of a resolution banning men as spectators and officials, law enforcement and media personnel, including photographers and reporters, from women's games. They warn that the continued presence of men will result in legal action.
