"The issue has been handed over to the culture committee of the parliament and will also be examined by the Ministry of Justice and we will see the results of the discussion in a week or two," Munatzari said in reference to the legislation that is at the center of the huge and civil protests in the country, which began following the killing of Mahasa Amini, a young Kurdish woman in the capital Tehran, after she passed About the hijab laws.
The president of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, also implicitly referred to the change in the legislation and said: "The Islamic foundations of the Islamic Republic are deep-rooted and fortified, but there are methods for implementing our constitution that are flexible and allow room for action."
