(ANSA) - ROME, AUG 14 - A group of Muslim women were prevented from bathing in their clothes at a Trieste beach on Sunday.
    The women had entered the women-only section of the Lido Pedicin beach, Europe's only segregated beach, with a wall separating men from women and children.
    But Italian women bathers protested with one saying "they've been around the city all day in those clothes and it's not hygienic, I'm a clean person".
    The Muslims asked for clarification from the beach management but were told that there was no regulation on the issue.
    They are expected to try again at another beach in the northeastern city soon. (ANSA).
