(Anadolu) Salwan Momika, an Iraqi Christian known for publicly burning copies of the Holy Quran, is back in Sweden after rejection of his asylum request in Norway and spending two weeks in prison.
The Swedish Migration Agency had revoked Momika’s residency permit, citing false information in his original application. That is when he decided to leave the country.
He left for Norway on March 27, but was arrested and deported back to Sweden this week. Police released him after a brief round of questioning.
Momika told Swedish newspaper Expressen that his temporary residence permit in Sweden expires on April 16 after which he will apply for an extension.
