British police arrest 6 for burning koran

WTF? It's now illegal to burn qurans in England? When the f**k did this happen? Telegraph

Officers detained two men on September 15 and four more yesterday and all six were bailed pending further inquiries, Northumbria Police said.

''The arrests followed the burning of what are believed to have been two Korans in Gateshead on September 11,'' the spokesman said. [...]

Northumbria Police said the men were not arrested for watching or distributing the video, but on suspicion of burning the Koran.

I wonder if the same police would arrest anyone for burning bibles or any other religious book for that matter.
