Sikh girl wins bangle law battle (BBC) (29 July 2008)
A 14-year-old Sikh girl has won her High Court discrimination claim against her school after it excluded her for breaking its "no jewellery" rule.
Sarika Singh, from Cwmbach, south Wales, was excluded by Aberdare Girls' School in November 2007 for refusing to take off her religious bangle.
A High Court judge in London ruled on the controversial matter after reserving judgement last month.
