Ewa-Gun Westford, a police spokeswoman, said the clashes on Wednesday and Thursday night were linked to the recent closure of an Islamic cultural centre in Malmo's heavily-immigrant populated neighbourhood of Rosengard.
The owner of the building had decided not to renew the centre's lease, which houses a mosque.
"We've had a very difficult evening. There's extensive damage to public property and there's been stone-throwing and bomb threats against police," Westford said... (Al Jazeera)

This could spread all over the world. It will be interesting to see if Sweden tightens its immigration regulations, which are very liberal
