A Brazilian student who was expelled from university for wearing a short dress has been readmitted.
Geisy Arruda was expelled after an incident on 22 October
Bandeirante University, a private college in a suburb of Sao Paulo, reversed its decision, following a public outcry and government criticism.
Videos of people jeering and swearing at the student, Geisy Arruda, have circulated widely on the internet.
They show the 20-year-old being led off by security guards on 22 October with a long, white coat covering her dress.
The university said in a statement on Monday it was reinstating Ms Arruda, without offering an explanation.
Earlier, it had said it had expelled her for disturbing classes through "a flagrant lack of respect for ethical principles, academic dignity and morality".READ MORE
