Version 0 of 1. PARIS — A pregnant Muslim woman who was attacked for wearing a facial veil on Thursday in the Paris suburb of Argenteuil suffered a miscarriage and lost her baby, her lawyer said on Tuesday. Two men attacked the 21-year-old woman, trying to remove her head scarf and later cutting off her hair, and reportedly shouted anti-Islamic taunts at her. The woman, four months pregnant, had been kicked in the stomach, her lawyer, Hosni Maati, told Agence France-Presse. On Saturday in Bordeaux, six Chinese students were attacked by three French youths, ages 19 and 20, shouting racial insults. The youths were arrested and the attack brought a protest from Beijing. |
