Iran suspends morality police. What does it mean?

Al Jazeera

Let's not forget that the morality police were just one very visible tool of implementing mandatory hijab. Complying with dress standards became mandatory by law four years after the 1979 Islamic Revolution. It birthed the current theocratic establishment and overthrew a monarchy backed by the United States. No senior official has seriously signalled in public that a major change in hijab laws could be implemented soon. Top authorities have emphasised over the years that they consider the issue to be a "red line".
