The conjunction just prior to 'tengan' should not be there.

The verb prohibir is a verb of influence and, therefore, requires the subjunctive mood in the 'que' clause. Whenever someone tries to influence another, the pattern is 'subject A + verb of influence (present indicative) + que + subject B + verb (present subjunctive)'. (If there's no change in subject, the infinitive is used instead of the 'que' clause.)
