It is noted that the migrant from Iraq was soon to appear in court. 
Sweden's most famous Quran burner, Salvan Momik, was shot dead. According to media reports, the murder took place in his own apartment in Södertälje, south of Stockholm, during a live broadcast on TikTok. The broadcast was turned off by police officers who responded to the call. Judging by the reaction of the deceased's subscribers, they did not fully understand what had happened.

It is noted that the murder occurred on the night from Wednesday to Thursday. The Iraqi's neighbors reported several loud bangs to the police. According to the media, on Thursday morning, 38-year-old Momik was to be sentenced in the case of inciting hatred and enmity. However, due to the death of the accused, it was decided to close the case.
The Swedish authorities officially confirmed that the deceased was the same Koran burner who, with his actions in the center of Stockholm, incited the hatred of millions of Muslims, including Ramzan Kadyrov, who called Salman a "Satanist" and called on the Swedish authorities to punish the Iraqi to the fullest extent of the law. The burning of the sacred book for Muslims almost cost Sweden its membership in NATO — the Turkish president accused Stockholm of aiding Momik and inciting Islamophobia. In Iraq, Salman's actions sparked mass protests — Baghdad residents tried to storm the Swedish embassy. The authorities of the Iraqi city of Al Kufa, where Momik is from, have put a $2 million bounty on his head. In general, it is even surprising how the number one enemy for Muslims has lived so long. It is reported that the police have already detained five suspects in the murder of Salvan Momik.
Momik came to Sweden from Iraq in 2018. Three years later, he received a three-year residence permit in the country, and in the spring of 2024, his visa was extended for another year. Momika gained notoriety in the summer of 2023, when he publicly burned the Koran several times as part of a protest against Islam. Iraq demanded the man's extradition, but the Swedish Migration Agency warned that Salman risked torture and inhumane treatment in his home country. Therefore, they did not extradite the man home. Salman Momika called himself "possibly the only true refugee in Sweden and Europe who needs help."
