Deceptive bras

The Mail reports that:
"A hardline Islamist group in Somalia has begun publicly whipping women for wearing bras that they claim violate Islam as they are 'deceptive'.

The insurgent group Al Shabaab has sent gunmen into the streets of Mogadishu to round up any women who appear to have a firm bust, residents claimed yesterday.

The women are then inspected to see if the firmness is natural, or if it is the result of wearing a bra.

If they are found wearing a bra, they are ordered to remove it and shake their breasts, residents said."
Sharia law in action, still sanguine about when the Archbishop of Canterbury says that Sharia Law is "unavoidable", when Lord Phillips, The Lord Chief Justice says that there was no reason sharia law's principles could not be used in mediation and when Stephen Hockman QC the former chairman of the Bar Council said that "legal reforms to incorporate Islamic principles are inevitable. He warned that 'otherwise we will find there is a very significant section of our society which is increasingly alienated, with very dangerous results. '"?
