{{Quote|August 2009|In the past two years, police have dealt with 170 crimes committed by 50 people who wore concealing Islamic clothing to hide their identities, according to police officials. | |||
Police are still looking for two men who were wearing the niqab when they opened fire on policemen in a western Amman neighbourhood in July and escaped. It was not clear if they were militants or robbers.Last year, two niqab-wearing men were arrested after robbing Société Générale Bank in Amman at gunpoint and taking US$37,000 (Dh1360,000)."Using the niqab as a means of disguise is very harmful to this dress, which is revered in our Islamic society. But it is evident that the number of criminal cases where the niqab is used has increased," Jamal Bdour, the director of the Criminal Investigations Department at the Public Security Department, told a press conference in July. | |||
Public cautions by the police regarding the niqab and khimar have triggered a debate in the country over how to tackle the use of the garments in crimes, with some calling for them to be restricted or even banned.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.thenational.ae/news/world/middle-east/crime-wave-by-men-wearing-the-khimar |title= Crime wave by men wearing the khimar |publisher= The National | author= Suha Maayeh| date= August 4, 2009 |archiveurl= http://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thenational.ae%2Fnews%2Fworld%2Fmiddle-east%2Fcrime-wave-by-men-wearing-the-khimar&date=2013-11-05|deadurl=no}}</ref>}} | |||
