"A dentist who told a female patient she must wear a Muslim headscarf to receive treatment has been found guilty of serious professional misconduct.
Dr Omer Butt was found guilty of discriminating against the woman, known as Ms A, by a disciplinary panel of the General Dental Council (GDC)."
"He said it was "unlawful" for him, as a Muslim, to look at a Muslim woman who was not properly covered up.
The patient, a community nurse who worked in Bury, said Dr Butt told her she would have to find another dentist because she would not wear the headscarf.
The hearing was told the dentist later quoted Islamic Sharia law on appropriate relationships between men and women."
Och rätten ansåg - tack och lov - att mannen skulle fällas för diskriminering.
Tack för tipset, anonym!
