Switzerland introduced a controversial law banning facial coverings in public spaces, often referred to as the “burqa ban,” which will come into force on 1 January, the government announced on Wednesday. This measure, which narrowly passed in a 2021 referendum in neutral Switzerland, was condemned by Muslim organisations and was introduced by the same group that led a successful campaign to ban new minarets in 2009.
The Federal Council confirmed the start date for the ban, noting that anyone found in violation could be fined up to 1,000 Swiss francs (£900).
