Muslim students in Switzerland are being forced to shake hands with their teachers Or Face Huge Fines

Muslims in Switzerland have been told they must shake their opposite sex teachers’ hands or see their parents pay a fine of up to 5,000 SFr (£3,500).

For some of the estimated 350,000 Muslims living in Switzerland, this is a problem. Islam forbid personal contact with someone of the opposite sex (with some exceptions for close family members).
