Melbourne, July 17 (ANI): Muslim taxi drivers in Australia are refusing to carry blind and disabled passengers with guide dogs - because their religion tells them the animals are "unclean".
A Courier Mail report revealed that Brisbane's Yellow Cab Company has been forced to sack some drivers over their conduct towards passengers with assistance dogs.
Now, the company has produced a booklet informing drivers of their duty towards blind and disabled customers with dogs.
Islamic Council of Queensland president Suliman Sabdia said dogs were considered a health risk for Muslims but "to use religion as a reason to refuse blind and disabled passengers is unjustified". (ANI)
