Iranian students protest mandatory headscarf rule

The headscarf, or hijab, is required in public for all women in Iran. Those who violate the rules are usually sentenced to two months in prison or less and fined around $25. Iran's semi-official ISNA news agency says university students held a campus protest against authorities for increasing pressure on women to wear hijab in public.
