Salwan Momika, said to be an Iraqi living in Sweden, set fire to a copy of Islam's holy book outside Stockholm's central mosque on Wednesday as Muslims were celebrating Eid Al-Adha.
The move has been condemned by Arab and Islamic countries, amid demands in some countries to expel the Swedish ambassador and boycott Swedish products.
