A Sikh man in Ireland has lost his appeal in a court to be allowed to wear the turban while on duty in a volunteer group for that country's police force.
High court Judge Kevin Feeney in Ireland Thursday dismissed the appeal by Ravinder Singh Oberoi to be allowed to wear the turban while on duty for the Garda Reserve, a volunteer group formed to assist the Garda Siochana, the police force of Ireland, a report said.
The Garda Reserve was formed in 2006 to comprise around 1,000 volunteers to assist the Garda Siochana in their duties.
