Tunisia bans the niqab veil in 'public institutions' and government buildings for 'security reasons'

Tunisia has banned the niqab veil in 'public institutions'. Under the new rules, people wearing the Muslim face covering will not be allowed to enter government buildings.

Tunisian Prime minister Youssef Chahed has brought in the new measure 'for security reasons', his office said.

Chahed signed a circular on Friday 'banning access to public administrations and institutions to anyone with their face covered', a spokesman said.

The 'security reasons' were not explained, but Tunisia has been rocked by a series of explosions in recent days.

On Tuesday a wanted militant blew himself up in the capital Tunis after being surrounded by police.

Aymen Smiri was the suspected mastermind behind two bombings in the city on June 27, which killed a police officer and injured eight people.

The attacks prompted Britain to update its travel advice for tourists and warn of a 'higher risk' of attacks in Tunisia.

Tunisia's interior minister instructed police in February 2014 to step up supervision of the wearing of the niqab as part of anti-terrorism measures, to prevent its use as disguise or to escape justice.

It's only in Nigeria that Muslims fight for that evil stuff, as in the case of Ibadan school while those that brought the uniform for them are rejecting it. France, Canada, Tunisia and some European countries.

We are waiting to hear from you

Some countries that look "more islamic" with larger moslem population than Nigeria always take drastic action if it is for the general good while Nigeria that is a secular state will do otherwise. Bring up the issue of banning veils in Nigeria even when terrorists are disguising and killing in it,u will be termed "enemy of islam"
