IRANIAN police raided a villa in the capital Tehran where they said an "illegal concert" attended by allegedly drunk boys and girls was being held and arrested 80 people.
"After receiving tips and after obtaining a judicial warrant, (the police) raided a place where an illegal concert was being held," Tehran prosecutor Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi told the hard-line Kayhan newspaper.
"Eighty boys and girls who were improperly dressed and were drunk have been arrested."
Dolatabadi said the authorities raided the villa yesterday and confiscated homemade and foreign alcohol. Alcohol is banned in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
"Five others who were selling tickets for the concert for $30 to $35 have also been apprehended,
Iranians can organise concerts of traditional music, ethnic folklore music and licensed pop music only after appropriate permissions are secured from Iran's Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance.

In 2007, police arrested 230 people in a raid on an illegal indie rock concert in a garden near Tehran. Several reports branded the partygoers as Satan worshippers
