PARIS: French Justice Minister Nicole Belloubet on Wednesday waded into a row over the marketing of a sports version of the hijab Muslim headscarf in France, saying she regretted the"hysterical" debate and stressing that selling such items would in no way break the law.
Providing the face is not completely covered"there are no legal objections" to selling the running hijab, she added, deploring the fact that some political leaders had sought to exploit the issue. Decathlon already sells the runner's hijab in its stores in Morocco, and had planned to introduce the garment to France in the coming weeks.
