The riots were an excuse for debauchery.

Regarding the unveiling of the hijab, Gholamreza Gilchalani stated that the riots were an excuse for debauchery.

Gholamreza Gilchalani, the governor of Masal, said in the Chastity and Hijab Working Group: "Unfortunately, these days, across the country, in Gilan Province and Masal County, we are witnessing a violation of norms that is happening with a specific plan."

"In the law of the Islamic Republic, the hijab is a law and removing the hijab is considered illegal. Accordingly, providing services to those who do not wear the hijab is prohibited this year. The riots were an excuse for debauchery. Now that the temperature is low, we are witnessing people not wearing the hijab, and if no solution is found, the situation will become even more deplorable in the summer."

He also announced that bakeries, hotels, pharmacies, offices, guilds, and restaurants are not allowed to provide services to people who have uncovered their hijab. This is despite the fact that women and girls have been protesting for 7 months against the mandatory hijab that led to the death of Mahsa Amini. 

Gholamreza Gilchalani called the popular revolution an immorality while many young people, both boys and girls, lost their lives for their rights, freedom of expression and belief, and not because of the hijab. The revolution and public protest over the killing of Mahsa Amini began because of the hijab, but the Islamic Republic regime attributed it to the people's desire to promote the practice of not wearing the hijab and labeled it immorality.

The people of Iran, not only women but also men, reacted to the message of the governor of Masal and many Friday prayer imams who called not wearing the hijab an obscenity and announced that there are bigger problems in Iran than the hijab that we the people will address, one of which is the overthrow of the Islamic Republic regime, and it will soon be achieved by us the people.
