(Local) Police in Sweden have received yet another application to hold a Quran-burning protest, with the event this time to be held outside the Iranian embassy in Stockholm.
The request has come from a 31-year-old man, who intends to set fire [to] the holy book of Islam, at the same time as setting fire to a picture of Iran’s head of state, Ali Khamenei, and also two doll’s heads, with the event intended to protest the way Iran treats its people.
“I cannot accept that our people live in such a state of ignorance and superstition,” the man told Sweden’s public broadcaster SVT.
