In July of 2007 the Guardian newspaper in the UK reported the case of a Muslim

woman juror who had been discharged from a murder trial after she was caught

listening to her iPod, concealed under her hijab, during important prosecution

evidence. The judge had heard traces of “tinny music” throughout the trial but

thought that it must have been either his imagination or a defect of his own hearing.

The woman juror was subsequently charged with contempt of court.
