A brutal militiaman was seriously wounded by occupants of a vehicle in the City of Pakdasht a suburb of Tehran.

The militiaman had arrested a car for what was called as 'playing loud music' and was seen brutalizing the two young individuals.

Witnesses saw one of the occupants to defend the group with a sharp object when the militiaman started to beat his friend and was going to pull a pistol.

Local residents helped the group to escape from the scene.

Pressure on young Iranians, especially females, have increased in the last three weeks by Islamist militiamen.
