Were 'religious police' behind bikini beating in France?

On Sunday the French press reported the sickening tale of a 21-year-old woman who was beaten up by a gang of five women at the Parc Léo Lagrange in Reims, northern France.

The attack, carried out by women aged between 16 and 24, was apparently motivated by the woman's choice of attire -- a bikini, which she was wearing as she soaked up the summer sun.

As the gang approached the sunbather one of them is said to have yelled out "Go and get dressed, it's not summer", reported the L'Union newspaper.

When she refused, the argument escalated into violence and the woman was kicked and punched by a number of the gang.

She managed to escape more serious injuries after it was broken up by members of the public.

News of the young woman being assaulted by others would perhaps normally not have spread beyond those in the park but it was then suggested the attackers were Muslims and had been acting as some kind religious police.

 On Sunday, four days after the actual attack, social media in strictly secular France erupted with anger and anti-racism groups were calling on the public to protest. Full story...
