Muslim man in Switzerland jailed for banning daughter from swimming lessons...

A MUSLIM dad in Switzerland has been sent to jail after refusing to allow his daughter to go on school swimming lessons.

Bosnian immigrant Emir Tahirovic, 40, had already come into criticism from school officials by insisting that his daughter wear a hijab.

Education officials had tried to ban it but he fought them in court and eventually won permission.

He also banned her from taking skiing lessons in the Alpine country along with her school pals.

But when he refused to allow the 14-year-old to go swimming as well, he was reported and prosecuted. Full story...
