In Pyatigorsk, university bosses ban students to wear hijabs
In the Stavropol Territory, the Academic Board of the Pyatigorsk State Linguistic University has prohibited students and teachers to enter the university buildings in hijabs, with piercing or bare stomachs.
"The Academic Board of the University has very clearly figured in its decision the elements of religious clothes, including hijabs (headscarves). And we'll now instruct the securities of the university not to admit students and teachers with extremities in clothes - barefoot, with open stomachs, with piercing and aggressive religious elements - to our higher school," said University Rector Alexander Gorbunov at the meeting of university students with the head of the city UVD (Interior Department).
According to the Rector, the university is a secular institution, which should adhere to the secular business style, the RAPSI reports.
Let us note here that in September in Ingushetia, after the principal of School No. 3 of the city of Karabulak did not allow a 5th form schoolgirl, according to the girl's mother, to attend school in hijab, the Ministry of General and Vocational Education of Ingushetia sent a special commission to the school.
In Dagestan, on September 23, unidentified persons shot dead Patimat Magomedova, director of the secondary school in Shamkhal village of the Kirov District of Makhachkala, who strongly objected against schoolgirls wearing hijabs. The Dagestani MIA does not rule out that the director was assassinated by religious extremists.
