Sixteen more people have been arrested and alcohol seized in the latest raid on an illegal party carried out by members of Iran's hard-line Basij militia, according to Jomhuri-Eslami paper. 

 

In its Wednesday edition, it said the Basij came across mixed-sex dancing, which is strictly forbidden in the Islamic republic, when they raided the party in the Savojbolagh suburb of Tehran. (Albawaba.com)
