LinkIreland: Muslims asked to remove headscarves for new Garda card

Via the Irish Times:
REPRESENTATIVES OF Ireland’s largest Sunni mosque have raised concerns over incidents in which a number of Muslim women were asked to remove their headscarves to comply with new identification procedures at the Garda National Immigration Bureau in Dublin.

The new procedures, which include a biometric fingerprint-capture system, were introduced in recent weeks.
