Insulating a religion or beliefs is a diffrent thing but in the name of freedom of speech and action, disrespecting religious books is a whole new level of low. A video of a guy and his friends recently surfaced on x the social media platform in the video, the youth can be seen dancing with the Quran, and what he did next was shocking. Dissecting the troublesome videoThe video starts with a youth in a nightclub in Manchester on the dance floor, when a friend of his can be seen handing him over the holy Quran. Next, the youth was seen dancing with the holy book and, after that, spanking himself with the same. Thereafter, he was seen throwing the Quran on the floor and kicking and stepping on it. As it appears to be a female friend from the hands, she tore pages of the Quran at the end of the video.Is police action being questionedThe video was posted by one of their friend Salwan Momika who mentioned in the caption, Police in Manchester arrested them yesterday on charges of blasphemy and insulting Islam in a nightclub. Is Islam really above the law of freedom of expression in Western countries Since the video went viral, native netizens have reacted the opposite way, take a look:Were they charged with blasphemy Cos that would be a tipping point !— John (@6Csdeathproof) May 12, 2024Muslims are fascists that believe theyre above everyone else.This is indisputable m proof of that.— Maemae77 (@PragmaticMaemae) May 12, 2024I thought we shed our blasphemy law long ago.— Heather Gulliver (@mhupupu) May 12, 2024@metpoliceuk this is unacceptable @TRobinsonNewEraWhy double standards — Krunal (@KRUNAL1) May 12, 2024Is that a law in UK— Dan (@I_W_A_4) May 12, 2024So now UK has the infamous same blasphemy laws PakistanShame on @HouseofCommons— Redkesh (@Observer511) May 12, 2024What charges can they bring against him Whats his crime rn— shaz (@azadikhahaneir) May 12, 2024Insulting any holy book is not good— nibuvj (@nibuvj) May 12, 2024The old blasphemy laws were repealed in England and Wales in 2008 and in Scotland in 2024. Nobody can be charged by the police with blasphemy because the offence no longer exists, and when it did it referred to the Christian religion.— Norman Leeds (@NormanLeedsPhD) May 12, 2024Viral sensationThe video has garnered over 190.6K views on the platform, over 7.6k likes and has been gaining high traction. When did disrespecting culture and religious books become cool to the eye of public, Rather than questioning the motive, the people were asking about the laws, grounds, arrests, etc.
