It shouldn't be acceptable to wear a traditional veil in court, we hear quite often of Jehovah's Witnesses whose children are made wards of court because their religious beliefs do not allow blood transfusions, the courts disregard their religion and beliefs and quite categorically over-rule them without exception. Why should any other faith be treated differently?
