The authorities denied her entry, telling her she would face visa cancellation and expulsion from the country if she were to wear it again. According to her account, police officers denied her entry to the mosque and warned that if she wore the headband again, her visa could be revoked and she would be expelled from the country. The woman said she was deeply ashamed and pained that in Mecca, the birthplace of Islam, a symbol of Palestinian identity was perceived as a political statement rather than recognised as a deeply rooted Muslim issue.
