		</div><p>French far-right National Front party leader Marine Le Pen will stand trial over comments she made in 2010, comparing Muslim street prayers to an occupation of French territory.</p>
<p>Party official Wallerand de Saint Just, Ms Le Pen’s former lawyer and a ranking member of the party, confirmed the judicial decision to send Ms Le Pen to trial on charges of inciting racial hatred.</p>
<p>The party is known for its anti-immigration, anti-Islam views.</p>
<p>Mr Saint Just said it was a question of freedom of speech.</p>
<p>“Political leaders must be able to speak without being afraid of being taken before a judge,” he said.</p>
<p>In July 2013, Ms Le Pen was stripped of her European Parliament immunity over the comments.</p>
