Woman who filmed herself urinating on Koran before burning arrested,faces six years in jail

A woman who allegedly filmed herself urinating on the Koran before burning it and declaring war on Muslim 'parasites' faces six years in jail.


The woman was identified as Sheila Szmerekova, 24, from the central Slovakian city of Ruzomberok after the video sparked outrage on social media.

                              

According to the UK Mirror, Special Court in Banska Bystrica ruled she would be kept in custody before facing trial.Szmerekova is accused of creating extremist promotional materials, defamation of a nation and race and incitement of national, racial or ethnic hatred.

According to spokeswoman of the general prosecutor's office Andrea Predajnova, the video was shared online in December 2016.

A police spokeswoman described the video: "In the video she shows a book with the title The Quran and she repeatedly said that it was the Quran.

"She tore out the pages and threw them on the ground. She urinated on the pages and wiped herself with some, and then she set them on fire."

The woman in the video refers to Muslims while saying: "I will hunt you all step by step. No matter if it is a woman, a child or a man. I will bump off anybody who gets in my way.

"I do not care about the criminal complaints. It will not stop me. I have a message for everybody, including the police - nobody will stop me."
