Burkini ban will 'increase segregation'
Burkini bans on French beaches are being challenged in court, with the country's Human Rights League taking the issue to the country's highest administrative court on Thursday.
Jean-Pierre Dubois is the President of the Human Rights League. He told Edward Stourton that the burkini ban would lead to an increased segregation between Muslim people and the rest of the population, which would help terrorists recruit more people to their cause.
