By Lawrence Conway PUBLISHED: 11:12 EST, 5 June 2012 | UPDATED: 11:17 EST, 5 June 2012 Ban: France's ban on full face veils introduced in April last year was the first in Europe - with Belgium following suit soon after Belgian right-wingers have offered to pay a bounty to anyone who reports a veiled woman to police. The Vlaams Belang political party made the 250 euros (£200) offer today in the wake of face veil riots in Brussels. Filip Dewinter, a senior figure within the right-wing party, told Reuters the riots had made police apprehensive about enforcing the burqa ban.
