Brisbane, Jul 4 : An Australian pub chain is apologizing to a Sikh man who was evicted from a bar for wearing a turban.
Spirit Hotels said in a statement said the man was wrongly evicted from a pub in the east coast city of Brisbane on Sunday because staff decided that his religious turban did not comply with its policy against patrons with headwear.
The statement said the chain was attempting to contact the patron on Monday to apologise.
Many pubs ban headwear so that troublemakers can be readily identified from security camera footage and because caps and beanies can make patrons appear untidy. AP
