| More than 30 college students were arrested, interrogated and within 24 hours were each given 99 lashes for attending a graduation party that included men and women, Iran's judiciary has announced.
The punishments, which were believed to be part of a wider crackdown by a judiciary dominated by hard-liners, were meted out in Qazvin, about 145 km north-west of the capital, and were carried out in record time, according to Mizan, a news agency affiliated with the judiciary, reported on Thursday. .
