Tunisia bans the Muslim headscarve

In fact the police are stopping women and making them take them off.

Media reports indicate that Tunisian police are stopping women on the streets and asking them to take off their headscarves and to sign a pledge that they will not wear a scarf again. A 1981 Tunisian law prohibits Islamic attire in schools or government offices.


They know that there is nothing in the Koran about wearing these veils and they are in reality a militant political statement.
