“Radical” mosques are closing in Austria. This information was provided by the Austrian Interior Ministry on Friday. A ministry spokesperson said more details would be released soon at a press conference with Interior Minister Carl Nehamar and Integration Minister Susan Rabab.
A mosque is being closed as a threat to national security following a deadly attack in the country’s capital Vienna earlier this week. More mosques may be closed later. “We will close a mosque after discussing with the relevant authorities,” said a statement from Austria’s officially recognized Islamic community. The statement added that the mosque was being closed in violation of “religious doctrine and its constitution.”
Austrian Interior Minister Carl Nehamar called the shutdown a “significant step” against those seeking to take advantage of the rule of law in Austria.
The attackers killed four people in an attack in Vienna last Monday. Which is the highest in the country in recent decades. The main culprit in the murders is a 20-year-old jihadist. Meanwhile, the police shot him dead.
