Danish Radio Owner Sentenced for Racism Against Muslims

Danish Radio Owner Sentenced for Racism Against Muslims

The owner of a hard-line right radio frequency in Denmark was given a 14 day suspended jail sentence after being charged with using racist expressions about Muslims.

Kaj Vilhelmsen, owner of Radio Holger, had used the expression “Either Muslims should be killed or they should be expelled,” in his commentary after July 13 London underground attacks killing to 52.

Vilhelmsen appealed the decision.

Danish officials had suspended all broadcasts from the radio station soon after Vilkelmsen’s commentary.
