I think it's another case of the press making a mountain out of a molehill to get a sensational story.

Facts:

Some council meetings take place during the month of Ramadan.
Refreshments are provided during the council meetings.
Dusk falls during the council meetings.
Muslims break their fast at dusk,
However, when dusk fell and the Muslims went to get their packs of food to break their fast they were finding there was none left as it had all been scoffed earlier by the non-Muslims.
The non-Muslims were therefore requested to refrain from tucking in to food until the Muslims broke their fast to ensure fairness to all.

I personally see nothing wrong with that. Perhaps if the non-Muslims hadn't been such greedy beggars in the first place the problem would never have arisen.
