The despicable protestors slandered Holy Prophet and hurled slurs against Islam, calling it a ‘religion of violence’.
The video showed that two Muslim men jumped in to attack Thorsen as soon as he lit the Quran. The Muslim men assaulted Thorsen with punches and kicked him on the floor. Soon police intervened to end the brawl. Police took Thorsen and Muslim men under custody.
Lar Thorsen is an anti-Islam protagonist, who was recently sentenced to a 30-day imprisonment and a fine after he was indicted in the case of distributing pamphlets with inflammatory messages calling Muslims ‘notorious sexual predators’ who ‘rape in epidemic proportions’.

Whereas, Muslim leaders in Norway have decided to register a complaint against Lars Thorsen, reported Norwegian media.
“We intend to report to the police the hate crime that Sian has committed. They have made verbal assaults on Muslims and illegally set fire to the Quran,” said Akmal Ali, the leader of the Muslim Union in Agder to a Norwegian media.
Another Muslim leader of Muslim Union Youth Agder, Omar Sadiq asserted that Lar Thorsen achieved his goals and fooled police. His acts have hurt the sentiments of Muslim youth and adults.
There has been an outcry on social media with people condemning the rise of Islamophobia in western countries. They added that hate sentiments unduly vilify peaceful Muslims living in the west.
