After Denmark, Holland will make a law to ban women wearing burqas in public places
News24xx.com - After some countries in Europe make a ban the use of burkas, now, the government of Holland is set to vote on controversial plans to ban women wearing burqas in public places next week.
The ban also apply to non-religious ski-masks and full-face helmets, not only for Muslims.
It would mean anyone caught covering their face in government buildings, on public transport and in schools and hospitals in the Netherlands could face fines of up to £350.
The plans were first put forward 13 years and were backed by the country’s lower house of parliament two years ago. And a vote is scheduled for June 19 2018.
Last week, Denmark became the latest European country to ban the full-face veil in public spaces in a move that has been criticised by human rights campaigners as a ‘violation of women’s rights’.
But then, the law was passed by 75 votes to 30 in the Danish parliament. So, anyone who wears a garment that hides the face in public will be punished with a fine. And anyone who is caught wearing a full-face veil in public will be handed a fine of 1,000 kroner (134 euros). Repeated violations will be fined up to 10,000 kroner.
The law also backed by the Social Democrats and the far-right Danish People’s Party and will come into force on August 1.
Amnesty International’s Europe director said in a statement following the vote, the law was criminalises women for their choice of clothing. And the law is fails to protect women’s rights. So, the Amnesty International’s Europe says that the wearing of full-face veils has violates the rights to freedom of expression and religion.
