Denmark: Palestinian Policemen Harassed By Muslims

Story/translation submitted by our Danish correspondent, Wiking.

Two young police constables of Palestinian origin have been granted extended police protection according to a report in Jyllands Posten today.

After months of harassment, culminating in the bombing of one of the men's car, the police district of Østjylland has taken the unusual decision to grant the two extended protection, says chief inspector John Jacobsen.

The problems started in June when the two assisted in the arrest of a group of "youths" from the Gellerup area after a prison verdict against some of them. Later the constables were harassed in their private life and threatened with physical violence. Two young men were later arrested and imprisoned for the threats. That caused the "youths" in the area to file a formal complaint against the two police officers.

The "youths" have stated that they regard the two as traitors who use their inside knowledge in order to please the police.

The minister of Justice Lene Espersen in a commentary calls the incident embarrassing.
"It's unpleasant, but the police do right thing when they act preemptively. The police have a great and deserved support among the Danes" she says.

For many years the police have tried to recruit officers from among the immigrants, chief inspector John Jacobsen says. This is a big setback for this work. Policing is still regarded as a low status job among the immigrant "youths" *.

* "youths" is a euphemism for Muslims, used by the press in order not to hurt the sensitivity of the PC crowd.
