Denmark, more Quran desecration in front of Egypt and Turkey embassies
A small far-right group set fire to copies of the Koran in front of the Egyptian and Turkish embassies in the Danish capital, Copenhagen, in a new blasphemous act against the Muslim holy book. The ultranationalist group "Danish Patriots" committed the sacrilegious act on Tuesday, a day after two members of the group desecrated a copy of the Holy Quran in front of the Iraqi embassy in Copenhagen, broadcasting the action live on Facebook. The Danish extremist perpetrated a similar act of desecration last week, which was met with strong condemnation by the Iraqi nation and the Muslim community. Egypt summoned the Swedish chargé d'affaires to condemn the desecration of copies of the Quran, describing it as "an unfortunate misuse" of the Muslim holy book.
