A Muslim ‘burka martyr’ is set to become the first woman in France to be sent to jail for wearing the face veil.



Hind Ahmas faces two years in prison and a fine of £27,000 after refusing to accept the legitimacy of a court which ordered her to spend 15 days working for free and learning about French values.
She was summoned to appear in court today but the 32-year-old was barred from her own trial because she would not take off the garb in the court building.
After being sentenced in her absence, she spoke on the steps of Meaux  Criminal Court in Paris to confirm she would not abide by the jurisdiction of the magistrates.
‘I’m not doing it,’ she said. ‘It’s the judge who needs citizenship lessons, not me.’
She had already been fined £105 in September for wearing the banned veil in public on three separate occasions in the Paris.
Leaders of al-Qaeda’s North African network have vowed to seek ‘dreadful revenge’ if the law is enforced.
Ahmas has launched a pressure group, Do Not Touch My Constitution, with Kenza Drider, 32, another veil-wearer who intends to run for president.
Ahmas’s lawyer, Gilles Devers, will appeal against the fine on the grounds that the new law was unconstitutional.
He is prepared to exhaust the French appeals process before taking their case to the European Court of Human Rights, he said.
France’s law makes it a criminal offence for anyone to hide their face in public, including streets, shops, restaurants and behind the wheel of a car on a public road.

Oh dear, imagine a woman refusing to cover her hair in Saudi Arabia because the law is "unconstitutional". At least in France, Ahmas can take advantage of the law . . . in muslim countries she would long have been dangling from a hangman's noose.
Mooslims and the audacity of terror.

Christians sef !

hypocrisy!hypocrisy!!hypocrisy!!!

these fanatical christians keep repeating how muslim women are "oppressed" and driven not by their will but by the will of their oppressive husbands and family members who "cage" them with the veil.they also tell us that if given the chance these women would like to be "freed".

so what happened to these women protesting the ban of the veil in France? isn't the ban against their will? isn't the ban also oppressing them? isn't the ban going against their will and freedom to choose?

shameful!
