Iran』s elite Revolutionary Guards force has raided three modelling agencies, accusing the companies and their aspiring models of breaking strict Islamic dress codes for women.

伊朗精銳革命衛隊突襲了三家模特經紀公司，指控這些公司及其有志向的模特們違反了嚴格的伊斯蘭女性著裝規定。

General Mohsen Karimi, a commander in the city of Arak, said staff at the underground agencies had been arrested for 「promoting vulgarity」, according to the semi-official Iranian news service Fars.

據伊朗半官方媒體法爾斯通訊社報道，阿拉克市指揮官莫森?卡里米將軍表示，這些地下機構的工作人員已因「宣揚粗俗」而被捕。

The report said part of the alleged offences had been the sharing of models』 portfolio pictures on social media.

報道稱，部分涉嫌犯罪的行為是在社交媒體上分享模特的照片。

Iranian authorities have repeatedly raided fashion events and targeted modelling agencies that post photographs online of models wearing Western-style clothes that do not adhere to Iran』s rules on the hijab.

伊朗當局多次突襲時尚活動，並針對那些發布穿著西式服裝模特照片的經紀公司。西式服裝不符合伊朗對佩戴頭巾的規定。

「Those who disregard norms and think they can do whatever they want in cyberspace should know that, sooner or later, the hands of the law will catch up with them,」 Mr Karimi was quoted as saying, without revealing how many people had been arrested.

報道援引卡里米將軍的話稱：「那些無視規範、認為自己可以在網路空間為所欲為的人，應該知道，法律之手遲早會抓住他們。」但他沒有透露有多少人已經被捕。

Iranian officials have long warned that the influence of Western and particularly US culture through the internet – and social media in particular – poses a threat to Islamic values.

伊朗官員長期以來一直警告稱，西方文化尤其是美國文化通過互聯網（尤其是社交媒體）產生的影響，會對伊斯蘭價值觀構成威脅。

Last week Iranian authorities launched an investigation into 「disturbing」 social media videos of schoolgirls dancing to a pop song.

上周，伊朗當局針對社交媒體上「令人不安」的視頻展開了調查，視頻中女學生隨著流行歌曲跳舞。

The country』s education minister Mohammad Bathaei said specialists would trace the source of the videos, featuring the music of US-Iranian rapper Sasy.

伊朗教育部長默罕默德?巴塞伊表示，專家將追查這些視頻的來源，視頻背景中是美籍伊朗說唱歌手塞西的音樂。

「The enemy is trying different ways to create anxiety among the people including by spreading these disturbing videos,」 he said. 「I』m certain there』s some kind of political plot behind the publication of these devious clips in schools.」

他說：「敵人正試圖以不同的方式在民眾中製造焦慮，包括傳播這些令人不安的視頻。我敢肯定，在學校里發布這些不正當視頻的背後，有某種政治陰謀。」

According to the Centre for Human Rights in Iran, the videos show children – and some teachers – taking part in an online dance challenge to the song Gentleman.

據伊朗人權中心稱，視頻中，孩子們和一些老師是在參加一場對歌曲《紳士》的在線舞蹈挑戰。

The human rights body described a 2016 crackdown on the modelling industry as an attempt to 「deprive Iranians of the cultural and artistic vitality that is rightfully theirs and further alienate the country』s youth」.

該人權組織稱，2016年對模特行業的打擊是「剝奪伊朗人應有的文化和藝術活力，進一步疏遠該國的年輕人」。

The organisation claimed some of those interrogated by officials had posted photos and videos on their Facebook and Instagram pages showing themselves without the hijab or wearing what the authorities have described as 「un-Islamic」 dresses.

該組織稱，一些被官員審問的人在Facebook和Instagram頁面上發布了他們沒有戴頭巾，或者穿著當局所說的「非伊斯蘭」服裝的照片和視頻。

「The Revolutionary Guards』 assault on Iran』s fashion industry testifies to the fear of hardliners who try to control every aspect of people』s lives and squash any visible challenge to their narrow world view,」 said the Centre for Human Rights in Iran』s executive director Hadi Ghaemi.

伊朗人權中心執行主任哈迪?加米表示：「革命衛隊對伊朗時裝業的攻擊，證明了強硬派的恐懼。他們試圖控制人們生活的方方面面，粉碎所有對他們狹隘世界觀的可見挑戰。」
