(Breitbart) An asylum seeker from Syria has been sentenced to 60 days in prison followed by a deportation order for hitting anti-Islamisation campaigner Rasmus Paludan in the head with a rock.
The 24-year-old Syrian will be banned from re-entering Denmark for six years following his conviction in the case earlier this week, Danish broadcaster TV2 reports.
The attack which sparked the case occurred on April 19th when Mr Paludan held a demonstration in the city of Viborg.
Paludan, a staunch anti-Islamisation campaigner and leader of the Hard Line political party, has become well-known in Denmark for his controversial and provocative street actions, some of which have seen copies of the Islamic Quran burnt.
