Former French actress http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=4239 has been sentenced to pay 15,000 euro by the court of Paris for instigation to hatred towards the Muslim community.

In December 2006, Bardot, 73, sent a letter to French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Interior Minister at the time, in which she demanded that the animals killed by the Muslims on the occasion of Eid el Kebir should be stunned before being slaughtered.

In particular, Bardot wrote: “Wéve had enough to be made fools by all this population which destroys us, destroys our country, imposing its acts”. These statements provoked the indignation of some anti-racist organisations, such as the human rights league and MRAP (Movement Against Racism and for Friendship between Peoples).The prosecution demanded that Bardot be sentenced to 2 months in prison on parole and a 15,000 euro fine.
