BBC: Denmark woman fined for wearing veil
She is the first to be fined under controversial new legislation banning full face coverings in public.
Denmark has joined several other Euporean countries in imposing a ban on facial coverings. It’s been dubbed the “burqa ban” and this makes it clear that authorities are preparedness to crackdown on violators. Some people think this was done to protect women from oppression, others think it does more harm to them.
