Salwan Momika, the Iraqi Christian who sparked outrage in 2023 by burning Qurans in Sweden, was shot dead in Sodertalje.

His death comes just before a court ruling on whether he was guilty of inciting ethnic hatred, which has now been postponed to February 3.

Police confirmed the shooting occurred indoors, and Momika was taken to the hospital but did not survive, NDTV has reported.
