Campaigners have warned that the case of a man burning a Quran in Manchester has brought Sharia law to the streets of Britain. The man, Martin Frost, admitted to a racially aggravated public order offense after tearing pages from the Islamic holy book and setting them alight. Free speech campaigners have criticized the case, stating that it could lead to retaliation against Frost. The incident occurred just days after a Swedish anti-Islam activist was shot dead after burning a Quran in 2023.
