Mauritanian women wearing a veil will no longer be allowed to visit Muslim extremist prisoners, the Nouakchott prison authorities announced on Thursday. According to the authorities, this measure was taken to ensure security in the prison in which about 60 suspected terrorists are detained. The prohibition was decided upon when the former units of the national guard are being replaced with new guards. Meanwhile, the Nouakchott prosecutor's office reiterated the commitment of the judicial authorities to guarantee a 'fair hearing of the case of all the detained terrorist suspects' on May 16.
