“Salwan Najem has only used his constitutional rights. Salwan Najem’s demonstrations are not directed at any group of people. In any case, irregular legal procedures,” writes his lawyer Mark Safaryan in the appeal to Svea Court, which was sent in Friday. Najem was convicted of four cases of incitement against ethnic groups, following the well -known Koran burns he conducted together with Salwan Momika in Stockholm in the summer of 2023. In conjunction with the public gatherings, which received a lot of attention internationally and aroused frame screams in large parts of the Muslim world, they wound In Korans in pork, kicked on them and statements offensive and derogatory about Muslims, according to the indictment. In total, Stockholm District Court considered that the demonstrations “at every time” expressed disrespect against the Muslim people group and that the act was not contained within freedom of expression. Salwan Momika was shot dead in his home the night before the district court judge was announced. No one is arrested for the murder.
