💨 Abstract

A man, Hamit Coskun, was convicted and fined for burning a Quran and shouting anti-Islamic slogans outside the Turkish consulate in London. Critics, including Kemi Badenoch and the Free Speech Union, argue that this conviction effectively creates a "blasphemy law," threatening freedom of speech. The UK government denies the existence of such laws. The case may be appealed up to the European Court of Human Rights. "".©News
