2004-12-29 | |
Tehran, Iran, Dec. 29 (UPI) -- Iranian parliament Speaker Ghulam Adel Wednesday denounced the expulsion of a Muslim student from a French school for wearing a veil. Adel urged European countries "to confront such unfair French measures," the Iranian News Agency reported. "The French decision to ban the Muslim veil in public schools is a blunt violation of human rights and aimed at confronting a religious minority in that country," Adel told parliament. He said Muslim women "know very well that wearing the veil does not curb their political and social activities."
