Denmark: UN to decide legality of comparing Muslims to Nazis
The UN will decide if several prominent members of the Danish People's Party, including party chairman Pia Kjærsgaard, crossed the line when they compared Muslims with Nazis and headscarves with swastikas.
In the upcoming year the UN's Human Rights Committee in Geneva will receive a complaint from the Documentation and Counseling Center on Race Discrimination (DRC).
The complaint says that the state prosecutor refused to deal with a complaint from the Center about Pia Kjærsgaard, EU parliament member Mogens Camre and the two Danish parliament members Søren Krarup and Morten Messerschmidt.
The head of the center, Niels-Erik Hansen, accuses the prosecution of not willing to take a stand in the case.
