  • Riots broke out in Trappes, a suburb (banlieue) of Paris, France, on 19 July 2013 after the police arrested a man who assaulted a police officer, who tried to check the identity of his wife wearing a Muslim veil on 18 July 2013.


    Background


    France officially banned face covering in public places in April 2011. Although disputed by French Muslims, the law remains in effect. On 18 July a 21-year-old Muslim convert was asked by the police to remove her face-covering veil. Her husband tried to choke the officer and was detained. The female was released on 20 July awaiting a court hearing.


    Riots


    On 19 July hundreds of youths throwing rocks, reportedly mainly of North African ethnicity, attacked the local police station.
    On 20 July 20 cars were burned in Trappes.
