Stockholm court gives Salwan Najem, whose co-defendant was shot dead last week, suspended sentence and fine

Summary

A Stockholm court convicted Salwan Najem of incitement against an ethnic group for his role in Qur’an burnings in 2023, sentencing him to a fine and suspended sentence.

His co-defendant, Salwan Momika, was shot dead last week, sparking concerns of foreign involvement.

The protests strained Sweden’s relations with Muslim countries and fueled debate over free speech limits.

The government had considered banning Qur’an burnings but is no longer planning immediate action. Sweden joined NATO in March 2024, partly fearing diplomatic fallout over the burnings could affect its bid.

    And that’s why I’m comparing apples with apples. It just that what conservative Islam aspires to is what Christianity was 300 years ago.

    You need to pay more attention to current events…

    Edit:

    Nevermind, in the middle of this conversation you’re elsewhere claiming Israel isn’t commiting a genocide and what they’re doing is acceptable.

    This isn’t a serious discussion and there’s a clear reason you keep wanting to only talk about Islam or lie about Christianity.

    You’re fine with burning Korans because you’re also fine with genociding Muslims.

    And I don’t have the energy to deal with more nazis then I have to these days

      I said nothing of the sort

      Your inability to read properly and instead leap to wild conclusions is part of the problem

      you’re fine with genociding Muslims…I don’t have the energy to deal with more nazis

      Case in point
