The police are enormously shocked by the blunder and has corrected the mistake this evening. Since the beginning of April compasses were put on the ceilings of the cells "meant as a service for Muslims who are arrested" a spokesman explained. Muslims must pray five times a day. In a cell in the Segbroek bureau the compass was placed the wrong way and the holy place was designated in the opposite direction. These compasses will also be hung up in other bureaus in the Hague "but the in the right way!"Met de billen naar Mekka http://www.parool.nl/nieuws/2007/APR/13/bin2.html |
