(National-UAE) An Islamic school in Sweden should be shut down because of its “connection to extremism,” a member of the country’s Parliament has said.
The Romosseskolan school, in the south-western city of Gothenburg, attracted criticism after it was accused of gender segregation in lessons and forcing pupils to take part in prayer sessions.
After public funding for the school was halted in June, a report surfaced this week that teachers were being paid by a group linked to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Responding to the claim, Roger Haddad, the deputy chair of an education committee in Sweden’s Parliament, said it was time for the school to be shut down altogether.
