Iraqi Christian Refugee Who Fled To Sweden And Burned The Quran In Protest Has Been Murdered

Posted • February 2, 2025: The Iraqi Christian Refugee Who Fled To Sweden And Burned The Quran In Protest Of Islam Has Been Murdered — A man who burnt the Quran in Sweden in 2023 and drew criticism from Muslim countries has been shot dead, news agency AFP reported on Thursday. A Stockholm court was set to rule on Thursday whether Salwan Momika, an Iraqi Christian who burnt the Quran during protests, was guilty of inciting ethnic hatred. The ruling was postponed after the court said, “one of the defendants has died.” Momika’s public burning of the Quran in 2023 led to protests in several Muslim-majority countries. The burnings strained Sweden’s relations with countries in the Middle East and led the government to increase security measures.

Swedish prosecutors had charged Momika and another man, Salwan Najem, with “offences of agitation against an ethnic or national group.” Prosecutors said the two men burned the Quran and made derogatory remarks about Muslims on four occasions, including an incident outside a Stockholm mosque. Unreal, the Islamifacation of Sweden is complete.
