UK - Veil row woman returns to court

The BBC leave out some important details in their story.

"She said she was "intimidated and deeply embarrassed" after magistrate Ian Murray refused to deal with her case because of identification issues.

Ms Hussain denies the charge and her case was adjourned until 24 July. "


In fact Ms Hussain has already been found guilty and the case is adjourned for sentencing.

As for Ms Hussain feeling "intimidated and deeply embarrassed", the veil is not an Islamic religious symbol but a radical Islamic political statement according to top Islamic scholars. In fact it is banned in several Muslim countries.

Muslim women already have to remove their veils for driving licenses.

"Muslim women are having their face veils removed so their identities can be checked before they take driving tests.

The move by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) follows a spate of cases in which bogus learner drivers impersonated friends or relatives and took the test for them. "


The BBC story is nothing more than playing the Muslim victim card and the BBC are happy to oblige.
