Police have 'given words of advice' to a boy who sent death threats to an autistic teenager who lightly scuffed a copy of the Quran
Police have given "words of advice" to a boy who sent death threats to an autistic student who lightly damaged a copy of the Quran.The Year 10 student brought the religious book to Kettlethorpe High School in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, on February 23. The cover was lightly torn and a page inside was smudged.
Police sparked incredulity in some quarters by designating the damage to the Quran as a "hate incident", although they said no criminal offence was committed. Kettlethorpe High School said it suspended four students over the incident. Home Secretary Suella Braverman said in response: "Blasphemy is not a crime in our country. We will only remain a tolerant and harmonious society if we do not capitulate to mob intimidation.Humanists UK said the decision to suspend the boys alleged to have started the rumours was “horrendous” and the school had allowed itself to be “pressured into excessive disciplinary action by areligious group”.
