Danish woman deported to Tunisia for refusing to remove niqab at Belgian airport

‘A Danish Muslim woman has been deported to Tunisia for refusing to remove her religious veil while going through security at Brussels Airport, Belgium’s State Secretary for Asylum and Migration has said.
The woman landed at Brussels Zaventem Airport on Wednesday on a flight from Tunis, Tunisia.
In a post on Facebook, immigration minister Theo Francken said that the woman had refused to show her face in Tunis and again refused to do so in Belgium.
“After she refused to make her face visible in Tunis, she refused to do so in Zaventem. Our border police then refused her access to the Schengen area. Without identity checks, no access to our territory,” he said.
The woman was deported to Tunisia on Friday.’
