📅 26 August 2016 📍 France

France’s Conseil d’État suspended Villeneuve-Loubet’s beach-clothing order following challenges by the Ligue des droits de l’homme and Collectif contre l’islamophobie en France. It found insufficient public-order grounds for the restriction and serious interference with fundamental freedoms. The decision concerned this municipal order. It did not automatically repeal every other town’s ban or resolve all discrimination against Muslim women.
