In an interview with Aftonbladet, Tareq Taylor says that certain headlines in the media have made “less balanced people” known.
– There has been a lot in the last year and a half. There are people who have been after me and uttered strong death threats against me which has caused me to sit in court recently. Now this person is in a psychiatric ward, he tells the newspaper and states:
– I have been afraid of this person, because it led to us finally sitting in a courtroom.

When Tareq Taylor is asked if he himself figured out who the person is, the TV chef replies:
– This person has been fully open about his identity. The reports did not actually come from me in the first place, but there has been vandalism at the restaurant, at my former home in Malmö, and he has issued death threats against me to people who have passed by on the street and who have reported him. I felt like I had to call the police because it was crazy.
