A new Koran burning is planned to be carried out on Monday, reports Expressen.
Two people have been granted permission for a public gathering at Mynttorget in central Stockholm on Monday afternoon. The men behind the application are the same people who previously held demonstrations outside the Iraqi embassy and a mosque on Södermalm in Stockholm where copies of the Koran were burned, the newspaper writes.
To Expressen, one of the men says that he plans to burn the writing many more times, despite the fact that the security situation in Sweden has deteriorated.
The second man’s residence permit in Sweden is already under review by the Migration Agency in July.
