TEHERAN - Iranian police have arrested a taxi driver who tried to seduce women passengers in his car by showing them pornographic films, a newspaper reported Monday.
‘The driver had installed a video system in his car and showed obscene films to passengers,’ the government daily Iran said, adding that the suspect had been arrested after a complaint from an irate passenger.

The driver, who was not identified, reportedly told police he played the videos in a bid to seduce female passengers, but that they ‘strongly objected most of the time’.

‘I protested the minute I saw the film but the driver refused to stop,’ said the woman who complained to police. ‘I threatened to attack him if he didn’t stop the car.’

Personal cars are often used as taxis in Iran. Police have urged people to avoid ‘unofficial taxis, which have been blamed for many abduction and rape incidents’.
