Angered Islamic cleric calls Carla Bruni-Sarkozy a prostitute

London, July 1 (ANI): In a bid to hit back at French President Nicolas Sarkozy's attempts to ban the burka, a crazed Islamic cleric named Anjem Choudary has branded his wife Carla Bruni a prostitute.

It may be recalled that while addressing Parliament recently, Sarkozy had said wearing the burka was not welcome in France, sparking strong reactions from Muslim communities around the world.

Choudary has said that former model and singer Bruni, 41, represents the face of a depraved Western society where women are treated like sex objects.

Writing on the Islam4UK website, he claimed that Muslims were not shallow to treat their women like the President.

"Sarkozy may be content with being wed to a prostitute who flaunts her body to the world believing it to be righteous conduct, but he is reminded that a Muslim is not this shallow and depraved," The Daily Star quoted him as saying. (ANI)
