CLEAN: Italian town introduces burka ban

In Rollo, Italy, the local mayor has imposed a ban on Islamic face veils, despite no national law against them, and introduced fines for offenders. This decision, although not prompted by any local incidents, aims to establish rules and is defended as non-racist.
