Hague: Muslim party wants dog ban
Update: The party denies it made such a proposal
via Spitsnieuws (Dutch):
Hasan Küçük, Hague councilor for the Islam Democrats, says dogs should be banned as pets in the city, reports De Telegraaf. The Muslim party says that the animals belong in nature, not inside the house. Küçük says that keeping dogs is animal abuse and should therefore be criminalized.
He responded sharply during a council debate last Thursday, when the Party for Animals suggested more consideration for dogs.
Paul ter Linden (PVV councillor) responded saying that pets are the norm in the Netherlands, and whoever disagrees should move to another country.
