Switzerland confronted an international backlash on Monday over a shock vote to ban new minarets and struggled to reassure stunned Muslims at home that they were not regarded as outcasts. Some 57.5 percent of those who cast ballots supported the measure amid a high turnout by Swiss standards of 53 percent. The result flew in the face of opinion polls that had predicted a 'no' vote, and caught out government ministers who had opposed the ban alongside the bulk of Switzerland's political and religious establishment.Duration: 00:35
