British Man Arrested for Burning Qur’an

There is perhaps no European country experiencing more mass Islamic immigration than Great Britain. The arrest of a man for burning a Qur’an and putting it on video is another in a long line of signals that freedom of expression is under grave threat.

According to a report at the Yorkshire Standard:

A 19-year-old from Leeds, West Yorkshire, who was arrested in connection with an offensive video he posted on a social media website has been released on bail.

A video, which was shared to the Yorkshire Standard, showed a man ripping apart an English translation of the Koran with his teeth and putting it in the toilet before burning it.

The police arrested the suspect on 27 December after people raised concerns for the safety of the person who had posted the video up following a number of public comments made in response to it.

People also called the police complaining about the offensive nature of the video.

The suspect was arrested from an address in Beeston, Leeds, on suspicion of a racially or religiously aggravated public order offence.

Superintendent Mabs Hussain, of Leeds District Police, said: “Due to the nature of this offence, any decision to charge must be taken by the Director of Public Prosecutions. We are currently preparing an advice file which we will be submitting to the Crown Prosecution Service in due course. In the meantime the arrested man has been released on bail to an alternative location.

As Shoebat.com has reported, this is precisely the kind of incremental “progress” that the “Istanbul Process” commissioned by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is shooting for.
