42 years old...not sure the charges will stick

A man who filmed himself burning the Koran has become the first person to be charged under Denmark's blasphemy law in 46 years.

"It is the prosecution's view that circumstances involving the burning of holy books such as the Bible and the Quran can in certain cases be a violation of the blasphemy clause, which covers public scorn or mockery of religion."

Danish prosecutors famously declined to invoke the country's blasphemy laws in 2006, when the Jyllands-Posten newspaper published twelve cartoons picturing the mar mongering pedophile and so called prophet mohammed, the founder of jihadist Islamism.
