The Human Rights Commission is probing the case of two siblings who were kicked out of a Cape Town school for wearing traditional Islamic headgear.
Sixteen-year-old Sakeenah Dramat, and her 13-year-old brother Bilaal were asked by teachers at Eben Donges High in Kraaifontein to remove their headscarf and fez on the first day of school last week.
Their mother, Nabila has told the Cape Times that the school called her later in the day and said it was against the code of conduct for her children to wear the headgear.
