Judge to deliver verdict in trial of man who burned a Koran outside Turkish consulate in London.

A judge will deliver a verdict in the trial of Hamit Coskun, who burned a Koran outside the Turkish consulate in London, shouting anti-Islam slogans. Coskun, 50, denies the charge of a religiously aggravated public order offense, arguing his actions were an exercise of free speech. His lawyer claims the prosecution is attempting to revive abolished blasphemy laws. The case raises questions about freedom of expression and the potential criminalization of damaging religious texts.
