Roya Maleki is a correspondent for RFE/RL's Radio Farda.
RFE/RL’s Radio Farda interviewed an Iranian woman who was recently detained for not wearing a hijab, or Islamic head scarf. She is among the scores of women who have been detained in recent weeks in Iran, where the authorities are intensifying enforcement of the hijab.
Three prominent actresses who were sentenced this week for not wearing the hijab in public were diagnosed as having "antisocial" and "anti-family" personality disorders by a Tehran court, a practice that top psychiatrists said was unfathomable.
