NCRI – The State Security Forces – mullahs' suppresive police– beat up and arrested three girls in their early 20s for eating potato chips during the day in the month of Ramadan in a sidestreet in Tehran, on September 13.
The girls struggled to get released but the agents paid no attention and forced them into their car and transferred them to an unkown location.
Since the start of Ramadan, SSF agents have been busy enforcing a law strictly forbidding eating and drinking in public regardless of age brackets. From a 60-year-old man in the western city of Khorramabad who was severely beaten in public for smoking a cigarette to under aged children chewing gum in a park while playing with the rest of the kids on their block.
In a directive issued a few days before Ramadan, the SSF ruled that no one is allowed to consume food or beverages in public.
Three weeks into the Ramadan in Iran, harsh treatment of those breaking the fast has added to people's problems with the mullahs' regime.
In a figure given by the deputy chief of the SSF on September 9, nearly 26,000 citizens have already received warning citations for breaking their fast in the streets.
