Sunday, 13 November 2011 BERN – Sending shockwaves across the peaceful Swiss Muslim community, body parts of a dead pig were buried on the site of a future mosque, in a new clear sign of growing anti-Muslim sentiments in the European country. Since the ban on minarets theres been an increase in Islamophobia and Islamophobic events, so it was not really surprising Abdel Azziz Qaasim Illi, spokesman for Switzerlands Central Islamic Council, told CNN on Saturday, November 12. A dead pig and four pig heads were buried at the site of a future mosque in the town of Grenchen. The attack was uncovered last Friday when police received an anonymous message claiming that someone had buried the body parts in the proposed site for the mosque. The unsigned flier, written in German, says This operation was done (conducted) to protest against the growing expansion of Islam in Switzerland, and says that a similar desecration in Spain earlier halted another mosque construction project. The note also said that 120 liters of blood from the animals were also spilled in the site to desecrate the ground to halt the construction of the mosque. onislam.net/english/news/europe/454662-mosque-profanation-outrages-swiss-muslims.html
