Tehran, 4 August (AKI) - Thirty-two students who showed up to their graduation ceremony with a tie run the risk of not graduating at all. For some in Iran, the tie is considered an extreme form of western cultural contamination. Thus in many cases, wearing a tie is thought to be a form of silent resistance against the forced Islamisation of society.

It is against the Law for the government of Iran to harass the students for wearing a tie. there are no laws in the country that states that. i hope that later they would sue.
