Radio Calling to Kill Muslims to be Closed
By Hasan Cucuk

The Denmark Radio Broadcast Central Committee has decided to hold an emergency meeting to cancel the broadcasting license of the Radio Holger, a local Danish radio station, which called on people to kill Muslims in order to combat terrorism.

The Committee moved quickly on the issue, since the decision about the racist broadcast of the Copenhagen Radio Council of which Radio Holger is bound would take a few months.

Committee Chairman Christian W. Scherfig said they could not wait a few months to reach a decision on such a significant issue. The Copenhagen Radio Council’s decision was open for appeal; however, if the Central Radio Council reaches a decision on the issue, there is no other authority to object the decision.

Furthermore, the Copenhagen police launched an investigation on whether Radio Holger’s announcement had violated the Penal Code that punished racism.

Owner of the Radio Holger Kaj Vilhelmsen had last week called on people to kill Muslims in order to combat terrorism. Vilhelmsen, who holds all Muslims responsible for the London blasts, used the expression “supporters of Mohammed” instead of “Muslims”.

“Muslims should be expelled from Western Europe in order to fight against terrorism. We can only prevent their bombings in various places using this method. Fanatic Mohammed supporters should be terminated as well. The meaning of this is to kill some of them,” Vilhelmsen had claimed.
