Today the decision came from the Migration Court. The expulsion of the Koran-burner Salwan Momika is determined.
In October 2023, Momika was not granted an extended residence permit by the Migration Agency, but he was still allowed to stay in Sweden with regard to the Torture Convention.
Koran-burner Salwan Momika is to be deported from Sweden. According to the Migration Court SR Ecot.
Salwan Momika was granted a temporary residence and work permit in Sweden in 2021, which would have expired in April 2024. This summer, however, the Swedish Migration Agency reopened his case and in October it was announced that the permit would be revoked. This is because he is deemed to have provided incorrect information in his application.
Momika immediately announced that he would appeal the decision.
In recent years, Salwan Momika has been behind a large number of Koran burnings around Sweden. Several of them have led to riots and unrest. Films from the actions have also spread around the world and aroused anger and criticism in several Muslim countries.
In parallel with the deportation decision, Momika has been granted a new temporary residence permit that extends to April 16, 2024. He has received this because of obstacles to enforcement, that is, it is deemed too dangerous for him to be sent back to his native Iraq.
