First case for Holy Quran desecration registered in Denmark
Copenhagen: Denmark has recorded the first instance of Holy Quranic defilement.
Two people were registered on Friday in Denmark under a new rule that criminalizes desecration of the Holy Quran, according to reports from international media.
According to the article, these individuals are suspected of desecrating the Holy Quran during a June event, but their identities were not revealed.
The authorities and local media did not disclose any additional information on the accused’s alleged activities.
It is important to remember that in 2025, there were multiple instances of Holy Quran destruction in Sweden and Denmark, which prompted Muslim nations to call for an end to such horrible practices.
The Muslim community was outraged by the Danish Holy Quran destruction episode, and on December 7, 2025, a measure was approved in Denmark declaring it unlawful. A few days later, the bill went into force.
Violators face a maximum two-year jail sentence or a fine.
