1) Italian law to ban veil wins early approval
ROME: An Italian parliamentary commission has approved a draft law banning women from wearing veils that cover their faces in public.
The draft passed by the constitutional affairs commission on Tuesday would prohibit women from wearing a burqa, niqab or any garb that covers the face in such circumstances. It would expand a decades-old law that for security reasons prohibits people from wearing face-covering items such as masks in public.
Women who violate the ban would face fines of up to €300 ($397). Third parties who force women to cover their faces would be fined €30,000 euro and face up to 12 months in jail.
