Tunisia: Muslim mob terrorizes teachers, students and staff at university that refused to admit a girl wearing a niqab ANSAmed
The University of Sousse’s refusal to admit a girl wearing the niqab to its Literature Faculty has been violently challenged by a group of people who invaded halls and offices on the site, terrorising teachers, students and staff. The news was reported this morning by the TAP agency. Students and professors signed a petition against further episodes of religious intolerance in universities, demanding the ban on the niqab to be upheld and the struggle “against all forms of religious fanaticism”. A few days ago, the Forum of Tunisian university students made a similar appeal after an increasing number of demonstrations of intolerance by Islamic fundamentalists
