(Anadolu) Far-right Danish-Swedish politician Rasmus Paludan, who burned a copy of the Quran earlier this year, has been reportedly arrested in absentia in Sweden.
The Malmo Prosecutor’s Office issued an arrest warrant for Paludan on suspicion of “several crimes,” Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet reported.
Paludan has been investigated a couple of months ago for “incitement against a group of people, insult and gross assault against an official,” it said.
Speaking to the newspaper, Paludan claimed that “Swedish police in general and Malmo police, in particular, do not want to protect me, so it is dangerous for me to come to Sweden.”
