TEHRAN, Iran (AP) _ A bill that would allow Iranian men to take
additional wives without the consent of their first wife has angered
women and the country's top justice official, who say it would
undermine women's rights and could be a government attempt to more
deeply enshrine its strict Islamic interpretation into law.
Outcry over the bill forced parliament to postpone a vote scheduled
for Tuesday so lawmakers could debate it further in a committee.
