Sweden court convicts Salwan Momika’s friend over Quran desecration

The Stockholm district court on Monday, February 3, delivered a landmark legal decision and convicted Salwan Najem of hate crimes for his anti-Islamic actions that involved desecrating the Quran publicly.

The court announced its verdict days after self-proclaimed anti-Muslim activist Salwan Momika’s assassination who was a



close friend and fellow campaigner of Najem.

Salwan Momika was mysteriously shot dead during a live stream in Sweden’s Hovsjo district on Wednesday night, January 29. His death occurred just hours before a verdict was scheduled to be delivered against him related to inciting hatred against Muslims and acts of Quran burning.
