Yesterday, I was in the airport of paris, france, waiting for my connecting flight. The time for Zuhr came and as I was a musafir, I needed to pray 2 rakaats. Whenever and where ever I pray, I first ask the staff where i can pray. When they showed me an isolated place, I made niyah and started praying. I believe it was in the second rakat when a policeman came and started shouting at my face " Don't pray here! " Being stubborn, I continued my salah, but had to break it when he started hitting me with his night stick. Allhamdulilah, didn't get hurt badly, just some minor bruises. May Allah make praying in France easy for other muslims.
