Sri Lanka Bans Niqabs And Burkas by Kingspin(m): 8:53pm On Apr 28, 2019
Sri Lanka has banned all kinds of clothing that cover the face and prevent identification, such as niqabs and burqas, officials said on Sunday, a week after the Easter bombings that left over 250 people dead.

The ban does not directly refer to Muslim female garb, burqa and niqab, but was seen as a clear reference to the type of dress. Sri Lanka, bombings Graphic content / Sri Lankan hospital workers transport a body on a trolley at a hospital morgue following an explosion at a church in Batticaloa in eastern Sri Lanka on April 21, 2019.

A series of eight devastating bomb blasts ripped through high-end hotels and churches holding Easter services in Sri Lanka on April 21, killing nearly 160 people, including dozens of foreigners. (Photo AFP) A statement from the office of the president said the ban was being introduced from Monday under new regulations brought under a state of emergency in response to the Easter bombings in the capital, Colombo. Sri Lanka’s Justice Ministry had already been considering introducing laws preventing wearing of Burqa and Niqab, but has expedited the ban. On Sunday, a group of Muslim leaders had called on community members to refrain from wearing clothing in a manner that obstructs identification of persons. Most of those killed in the Easter Sunday attacks were Sri Lankans.

That Miyetti Allah clown should go to Sri Lanka & ask the government why they have banned heathen dressing to keep her citizens safe.

His types are relevant only in failed states like Nigeria where intellects are relegated to the background & brain-dead corpses are elected Presidents & made moderators.

After loss of so many lives.
Even many Islamic countries for a few years back had seen the folly and security risk that piece of deception was creating and banned it.
So what excuse do other countries with similar security threat have for still allowing it?None.

Islam is a terrorist religion. It is the only religion causing trouble in the world today. In Sri Lanka, Islam is just 9.7%, while Christianity is abort 7.4%. The majority Hindus respect everyone's religion, but Islam causes trouble anywhere they are found.

This religion lacks the KEY attribute of God Almighty, LOVE. The Almighty God is a Loving God. Only the devil steals (steals peace, joy, etc), kills and destroys (John 10:10)
