RIYADH: The Secretary-General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, Hissein Brahim Taha, held a phone call with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Friday to review aspects related to the latest incident of burning copies of the Qur’an in Sweden. The two sides also reviewed the OIC’s response through the convening of an extraordinary meeting of the organization’s executive committee under the leadership of Saudi Arabia, where Taha briefed the prime minister on the session’s deliberation. Sharif informed the OIC chief on the adoption of a resolution earlier on Friday by Pakistan’s Two-Houses of Parliament, “demanding the Swedish government to take action against the perpetrator of such a reprehensible act that has never been justifiable under the pretext of freedom of speech,” the Riyadh-based OIC said in a statement. Thousands of Muslims across Pakistan held nationwide protests on Friday to protest the incident in Sweden late last month when an Iraqi immigrant burnt a copy of the Qur’an outside a mosque in Stockholm, sparking widespread condemnation.
