Zambry Abdul Kadir said burning the Quran violated the universal principle of respect and understanding towards all religions and their holy scriptures.
“The desecration of the Holy Book, while Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid Al-Adha, is very offensive to Muslims worldwide. It violates the universal principle of respect and understanding towards all religions and their holy scriptures,” said Zambry in a tweet. Reuters reported that Swedish police granted permission for a protest in which the organiser planned to burn the Quran. The man was later charged with agitation against an ethnic or national group.
Although Swedish police have rejected several recent applications for anti-Quran demonstrations, courts have overruled those decisions, saying they infringed on freedom of speech.
