(AGI) Tehran, May 20 - Over one million people in Iran consume alcoholic drinks in spite of rigid Koranic morality and rules, and of these 30 percent are women as reported by an Iranian academic, Reza Ashrafi, quoted by the student news agency ISNA.
On the basis of a study on which the expert worked for over a year, these figures are five times those admitted by the Iranian regime, which, unable to continue to ignore the phenomenon, at the end of 2013 authorised the opening of the first rehabilitation centres for alcoholics.
