Sweden and Denmark raise threat level in the aftermath of Quran burning incidentsl Oneindia News

Sweden raised its terrorism alert level yesterday one notch to the second-highest, following a recent string of public desecrations of the Koran in the Scandinavian country by a handful of anti-Islam activists, sparking angry demonstrations across Muslim countries. It has also stepped up border controls and identity checks at crossing points. The country has in recent weeks asked citizens abroad and businesses linked to the country to "be attentive and aware of the information the authorities communicate", following a string of public burnings of copies of the Koran by an Iraqi asylum seeker.
