The Dutch News website reports today (April 10, 2012) that a council in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, was correct not to offer Muslim lawyer Mohammed Enait the job of client manager, since he refused to shake hands with women, a court in The Hague ruled today.
Enait had applied for the job at the social services department, but said he would not shake hands with women on religious grounds.
When he was refused the job, Enait brought a civil case against the Rotterdam council, saying the rejection was religious discrimination.
The court found the refusal to shake women's hands "unacceptable" and that Enait is ignoring the equality between men and women.
