Shariah Law In Swaziland As Mini Skirt & Low Jeans Are Ban by 13volts(m): 8:38pm On Dec 24, 2012 |
Women in Swaziland risk arrest if they wear miniskirts or tops which expose part of their stomach as they will be violating moral standards, a police spokesperson has said. "The act of a rapist is made easy, because it would be easy to remove the half-cloth worn by the women," Wendy Hleta was quoted as saying. Offenders face a six-month jail term under the ban, which invokes a colonial criminal act dating back to 1889. The ban also applies to low-rise jeans. | http://www.aljazeera.com/news/africa/2012/12/20121224142653129706.html Am going to post some of the comments I found quite interesting. |
