YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A man who was fined for setting fire to a Quran outside the Turkish consulate in London has won an appeal against his conviction after a judge backed his “right to offend”.

Hamit Coskun was found guilty of a religiously aggravated public order offence in June after shouting “fuck Islam” and “Islam is religion of terrorism” while burning the holy book in February.

Tom Swarbrick speaks to freelance journalist Fahima Mahomed and Andrew Copson, Chief Executive of Humanists UK.
