In June 2016, an Algerian woman married to a Frenchman took part in a naturalization ceremony (cérémonie d’accueil dans la citoyenneté française in the Département where the couple lives. She refused to give a handshake to the prefect and to a local representative and claimed her religious faith would ban her from touching foreign men. Thereupon, she did not receive the French nationality. On 20 April 2017, prime minister Cazeneuve signed a decree approving that decision. The Algerian woman filed a suit. On 11 April 2018, the Conseil d'État has approved the decree.
