FRANCE: A woman was forced to remove her ‘burkini’ swimsuit on a beach in Nice by armed police officers, a series of photos that emerged online on Wednesday showed.
Last week, Nice became the latest French seaside resort to ban the burqini, the body-concealing Islamic swimsuit that has sparked heated debate in secular France.
The photos showed that French police officers confronting a woman resting on a beach at Nice’s Promenade des Anglais, asking her to remove the ‘burkini’, The Guardian reported.
At least four police officers stand around the woman as she removes a blue garment, with one officer appearing to take notes or issuing a fine. It could not be ascertained if the woman was actually wearing a burkini.
The mother of two had also been fined at a Cannes beach, while wearing leggings, a tunic and a headscarf. The ticket issued to her stated that she was not wearing “an outfit respecting good morals and secularism”.
