Summary
Torchbearer of political freedom Switzerland has decided to ban the construction of minarets in Switzerland as these minarets are considered the symbol of Muslims political strength. The initiative to ban the construction of minarets in Switzerland discriminates against Muslims as a religious minority, Swiss Muslims believe. Muslims in Switzerland identify with Switzerland as their home, whose constitution and laws guarantee them protection, freedom and security, said Farhad Afshar on behalf of the Coordination of Islamic Organisations of Switzerland.
