Excerpt:
The Swiss 'yes' vote in a referendum banning the construction of new minarets was a violation of international law and violated religious freedom, Imam Mohammad ElSadi, head of the Muslim community in Malta, said in a statement today.
Earlier today, Archbishop Paul Cremona, speaking on the PBS programme Bongu also condemned the vote, saying it went against religious freedom and freedom to express religious belief.
The Imam said the vote disappointed all those who held peace and tolerance at heart all over the world.
