Interpol warns Koran burning may trigger attacks

September 10, 2010

PARIS, Sept 9 – The international police agency Interpol warned governments worldwide today of an increased risk of terror attacks if the planned burning of the Koran by a US pastor went ahead.

“If the proposed Koran burning by a pastor in the US goes ahead as planned, there is a strong likelihood that violent attacks on innocent people would follow,” Interpol said in a statement, adding that it was acting partly on a request from Pakistan. – Reuters
