Maldivian security personel patrol on a

Maldivian security personel patrol on a street in the Maldive's capital of Male, 14 November 2007. State-run television in the Maldives has been ordered not to employ women who cover their heads and to stop praising Palestinian suicide bombers, a government minister told AFP. The measures are part of a package of restrictions designed to stem a feared spread of militant Islam that could damage the Indian Ocean archipelago's status as a top destination for rich tourists.
