"A BNP candidate for next month's Welsh assembly elections has been charged with a public order offence, after police were passed a video appearing to show him burning a copy of the Koran." 

How can it be a public order offence if it was just a video that was passed to the Observer which the Observer passed to the police?

To be a public order offence, would that not mean that a member of the public had to see this display in a public place?

Which section of the Public Order Act is he being charged under?

Sounds like a case of malicious prosecution to me.

Strange another so called scandal just before an election.
For the record every time a suicide bomber blows up a place don,t you think that there would of been several copies of the Koran in each of these buildings and lets put it in perspective its a book wrote by a paedo who married a 6 year old.

BNP 'Koran burn' candidate Sion Owens case withdrawn

As I predicted.

Claire Khaw complimented as being "very Protestant" by Calvinist pastor Paul Vanderklay!

  CLAIRE KHAW does not see any prospect of Christians agreeing on the Doctrine of the Trinity and suggests that Americans at least should go...
