Iranian Police Arrest 120 Party-Goers


NO PARTY IN TEHRAN Iranian police have arrested 120 party-goers at three private gatherings in wealthy districts of the capital Tehran and charged them with mingling with the opposite sex and dancing, a newspaper reported Tuesday.

The conservative daily Jam-e Jam said the unusually large haul of young lawbreakers were released after paying fines and signing pledges to stay away from future parties.
