Suicide Bomb Blasts; Chadian Government Bans Women From Wearing Full Face Veil



Following the twin blasts which killed more than 20 people in the capital, N’Djamena on Monday, Chadian government has banned women from wearing the full-face veil. Prime Minister Kalzeube Pahimi Deubet said the security forces have been ordered to seize and burn all full-face veils sold in markets.
The ban applied “in the whole territory” and not only public places, he said at a meeting with religious leaders.The veil was being used as a “camouflage” by militants, the prime minister added. Most people in Chad are Muslims.
