Excerpt:
A sports centre in Sesto, northern Italy, will in January offer a swimming course specially designed for Muslim women, a decision that has sparked outrage from a right-wing political party.
The swimming course, which was proposed by town's Islamic Centre, will take place between January 19th and April 20th next year and is aimed at bringing women of the same faith together, Corriere della Sera reported.
Both Muslim and non-Muslims women will be allowed to join.
