(Copenhagen Post) Today, the government outlined plans to crack down hard on imams who propagate Sharia law divorce documents.
Now, in a stunning turn of events, Iran’s ambassador to Denmark, Afsaneh Nadipour, has been summoned to the Danish Foreign Ministry to explain reports that the Iranian Embassy is involved in cases regarding religious divorces.
“Naturally, we will in no shape or form accept an embassy being involved in cases that go against Danish law — and our basic democratic values in Denmark,” said foreign minister Jeppe Kofod.
“This form of religious control, which we have heard about in the media, does not belong in Denmark. So I’ve summoned the ambassador for an explanation.”
