(Anadolu) A French court on Wednesday annulled the government’s decision to close a mosque near the city of Bordeaux.
Sefen Guez Guez, the lawyer of the association of the Al Farouk Mosque, said that the Bordeaux Administrative Court annulled the Gironde governorate’s March 14 decision to close the mosque for six months.
Noting that the court’s decision was a step against the “unfair” closure of mosques in recent years.
Guez added that Muslims can come together in the mosque.
The Al Farouk Mosque in the Pessac district near the city of Bordeaux was closed for allegedly defending “radical Islam” and “spreading Salafist ideology.”
