Legal Status
Due to concealing the wearer’s identity, Islamic female dress such as the burqa and niqab have been used to facilitate numerous crimes, ranging from terrorism to child abduction. Hiding your identity in public this way is legal in many countries, whilst other face coverings such as balaclavas and motorcycle helmets pose the risk of getting the wearer arrested.
Psychology
Professor Albert Mehrabian concludes that 55 percent of communication takes place through body language.[6] Islamic dress can hide the face and body, making it difficult for any kind of law enforcement officer to read the wearer's body language, whether it be in an airport, on CCTV, in a vehicle etc.[7] Lawyers and judges have argued, it is harder to determine if someone is telling the truth or not in court if they are wearing a burqa or veil.[8][9]
Use in Law Enforcement
Bangaldeshi police officers have created a "Burqa Team" to catch carjackers and muggers in the act. Abdul Latif of Kafrul Police Station said they devised the technique so that the muggers cannot identify them.[10] Pakistani officers have also dressed in burqas to capture al-Qaeda suspects.[11]
