Dr Omar Butt

Muslim dentist Omar Butt was today convicted by the General Dental Council of serious professional misconduct for refusing to treat a woman patient who wasn't wearing a headscarf.

Is this racial discrimination and if so, will the police investigate?

In his defence the dentist stated that, under Muslim law, it was unlawful for him to look at a woman who was not properly covered up.

Did I nod off? I thought that the law of England & Wales took precedent in this country; again, will the police investigate?

Don't hold your breath!
