Tehran, Iran, Apr. 20 – Ten young men were paraded by police in the northern Iranian town of Tonkabon, Iran’s official news agency reported on Thursday.

Colonel Ahmad Fazeli, the commander of State Security Forces in the town, was quoted as saying that the men, who had been arrested over the past month, were paraded in the streets of Tonkabon on Wednesday.

The men were accused of various crimes including “racketeering”, theft, and “hooliganism”.

Authorities frequently use degrading punishments against youths in their local neighbourhood so as to embarrass and humiliate them.

Such punishments are often used for petty crimes such as alcohol consumption, disregarding nightly curfews, and disrespect towards security agents.
