Woman wearing traditional muslim scarf and holding French flags gather outside the town hall in Mantes la Ville, north west of Paris, Friday, May 16, 2014, in protest of the ban of a new mosque. A new mosque for Muslims approved last year and paid with a heavy deposit is suddenly in limbo in a town outside Paris, and new shops in a southern town that reflect Muslims' traditions will be banned. Newly-installed far-right mayors in Mantes-la-Ville, west of the French capital, and in Beaucaire, in southwest France, are rolling out their programs and the large Muslim populations in their towns risk getting crushed.
