STOCKHOLM
An attack against Islam’s holy book was organized Thursday in Stockholm.
At Angbybadet beach in the Bromma district, 47-year-old Iranian-born Bayrami Marjan burned a copy of the Quran under police protection.
He said all religions should be destroyed as he burned the holy book in a barbecue.
Recent months have seen repeated acts of Quran burning, desecration or attempts to do so by Islamophobic figures or groups, especially in northern European and Nordic countries.
