Belgium Burka Ban: Diplomat Rips off Qatari Princess' Niqab

Belgium Burka Ban: Diplomat Rips off Qatari Princess' Niqab - Yahoo News UK

A senior Brussels diplomat and chief of protocol has admitted to removing the veil of a Qatari princess by force.

Jean-Marie Pire, 60, is employed by the Brussels council to welcome foreign dignitaries to the Belgian capital and heart of the European Union.

He was approached by the wealthy woman and two female companions in central Brussels, asking for directions to the famous Grand Palace when the diplomat removed the woman's niqab, a black full-face veil.

"I said I don't talk to anyone if I can't see their face," said Pire. "With this reply, I wanted to make it clear that the veil is banned in Belgium.

"Because the person asking me a question didn't seem to hear me, I lifted her veil. I know I shouldn't have done that, but what she did wasn't legal either!"

The woman, who has not been named, claimed Pire violently ripped her earrings when trying to take off her niqab, causing cuts and bruises to the victim.

As well as its neighbour France, Belgium banned face-coverings in 2012, imposing fines for wearing veils in what is widely known as the "burka ban".

Local officials have already given the unnamed woman a €125 fine for breaching the ban on face-coverings. She also faces up to seven days in prison for wearing the garment in public.

There is currently no ban on veils in Britain but some Conversative MPs have called for such a law.

'We will never have a fully functioning, fully integrated multi-cultural society if growing numbers of our citizens go around with their faces covered,' Conservative MP Philip Hollobone has previously argued.

1. It doesn't matter if she is princess of quatar or princess peach from Super Mario. Her laughable medival tribal clan structure doesn't give her a special bonus here.

2. Coming here and walking around like a ghost of Pacman is an insult to european culture and a security risk. She does not behave european, then she should leave.

3. My own teacher ripped off the veil of a turkish girl at school with the comment " hats down in the school building" and i support this. Im not allowed to wear a base ball cap in school, so its just fair.

4. You dont like our culture? Fine! visit a place that suits you more then. Nobody forced princess Toadstool to come here.

If i visit any muslim country with my girl and she would go with Bikini into city we would be arrested.

Well but .... its Europe , who cares , its Europe , no one is ever happy in Europe anyways

Disrobing someone is illegal (Against their wills) , in any form of language , and simply put rape attempt

Don't like someone , wearing something give them ticket *fine ... you don't go and force someone to disrobe against their wishes. Not to mention bodily hard done when he tried to steal the diamond earings

She commited a crime under Belgian law so I don't feel any empathetic for her.

Disrespecting the laws are always a trait for wealthy arabs. Its common here in UK too. Having said that, it gives no right to any one apart from the law enforcement agencies to act over it. Both parties are guilty here.

If someone breaks a law you report to them Police not take law into your own hands. On the other hand it also shows deep hatred and resentment against Muslims by some Europeans. As I have said before extremism is on the rise all over world. People just can't seem to tolerate fellow human beings. This is pathetic, humanity is going down the drain.

It's all part of the New World Order.

Bring order out of chaos and control the world population by a small group of globalists.

Hatred for muslims, Chinese, blacks, etc are on the rise.

I'm talking generally about the hatred for the fellow human being.
Europeans and Anglo-Saxons are the most racist of all humans.

Shouldn't have done that. Idiot official. He should not be left off the hook. He should be prosecuted over this.

The Qatari lady was doing an illegal act, he should have either had her arrested and prosecuted or if she had immunity then had her deported.


Why do you think He did this, just because the unknown women says so?

The woman, who has not been named, claimed Pire violently ripped her earrings when trying to take off her niqab, causing cuts and bruises to the victim.

How can the women substantiate/corroborate this?
Her words against his...

Some times they are looking for a big claim, so they cook up the story..
You have no reason to believe this woman about her earrings..

The West has erased more cultures than anyone in human history. The entire US was founded by a groups of thugs that ruthlessly exterminated the Native Americans.

If your only achievement in 40.000 years is a spear you deserve to be hammered. Mights makes right.
