Muslim woman fined $575 for ‘tainting’ swimming pool with burkini – report

‘A Muslim woman who rented a private vacation residence in France was reportedly made to pay €490 (US$575) because she swam in the property’s communal pool while wearing a burkini. The owner said the pool had to be emptied and cleaned after her swim.
The woman, referred to as ‘Fadila’ by United Against Islamophobia in France (Le Collectif Contre l’Islamophobie en France, CCIF), rented the house near Marseille with her husband and three children.
On the first day of her vacation, Fadila swam with her children while wearing a burkini and did not encounter any problems. However, on the second day, a staff member at the pool told everyone to get out of the water after spotting Fadila swimming in her burkini.’
