A Frenchwoman who wears an Islamic face veil, despite a nationwide ban, wants to run for president in next year's electoins.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Kenza Drider said she wants to defend the rights of all French women.
She is among a group of women mounting an attack on the law that has banned Muslim face veils from the streets of France since April. They want to prove the measure contravenes fundamental rights.
