Gaza’s Police Continues Its Campaign against “Weird” Haircuts and Tight Trousers

11 April 2013

The Gaza police has continued its campaign against “Western and weird” haircuts and clothes (low waist trousers and tight shirts).
Since 31 March 2013, Al Mezan has documented 31 complaints from those who had their hair shaved.
All the affidavits are talking about police taking them to police station, shaving their hair, ordering them to change their trousers, and signing commitment to wear loose-fitting trousers before releasing them.
