On Friday, the United Nations report says that Iran uses advanced technology, including drones, face recognition and application to inform citizens to decide on violations of compulsory veil laws.
One of the main elements of this effort is the government -backed Nazer application, which enables the police and the “poor” of the public to report alleged violations by women in vehicles, including those in ambulances, collective transit and taxis.
The report describes the application as allowing users to download the car license board, location and alleged violation time. Then, according to the report, the police alert. After that, according to the report, the application “leads to a text message (in the actual time) to the owner of the car registered, and warned them that they had been found in violation of the compulsory veil laws, and that their cars will reserve them to ignore these warnings.”
According to the report, the authorities use drones in Tehran and the southern part of the country to monitor the compliance of the headscarf in public areas, in addition to the new face recognition program that was said to be installed last year at the entrance to the American University in Tehran.
The report is to go to the United Nations Human Rights Council on Tuesday.
