POLICE FORCES WOMAN TO TAKE OFF BIKINI AT THE BEACH

Armed police have forced a woman on a beach in Nice to remove her bikini as part of a controversial new ban.The incident occurred on the beach at the city’s Promenade des Anglais, the location of the lorry attack on Bastille Day in which 84 people were killed last month.

Photographs show four police officers armed with handguns, batons and pepper spray standing round the woman who was lying on the beach wearing a blue headscarf and matching top.


After speaking to the woman, she appears to remove the blue long-sleeve top.


She is thought to have been issued with a fine and warned about the new dress code on the beach.

Several women have now been fined in France for wearing the swim wear.


On Tuesday a 34-year-old mother of two, whose family have been French citizens for at least three generations, told French news agency AFP she had been fined on the beach in Cannes, 18 miles from Nice, for wearing leggings, a top and a headscarf.


The former air-hostess from Toulouse was issued a ticket saying she was not wearing “an outfit respecting good morals and secularism”.


“I was sitting on a beach with my family,” she said. “I wasn’t even planning to swim, just to dip my feet.”
