Italy's ruling party seeks ban on wearing of Muslim burqa, niqab in public spaces
Italy's ruling Brothers of Italy party has announced plans to introduce a bill banning Muslim women from wearing the burqa and niqab in public spaces, labeling it a move against “Islamic separatism,” Politico reported Wednesday.
“Religious freedom is sacred, but it must be exercised in the open, in full respect of our constitution and the principles of the Italian state,” lawmaker Andrea Delmastro, one of the bill's initiators, said in a Facebook post Wednesday.
