A Welsh politician has been arrested for Quran burning

Footage of Sion Owens, 40, from south Wales allegedly shows him soaking the Quran in kerosene and setting fire to it was leaked to the Guardian newspaper, which wrote in a report of the incident that they immediately turned the video over to authorities. Owens was then arrested for his alleged act within hours of police receiving the video. A second person, believed to have filmed the Quran burning, is also in police custody. Isn't it amazing that you can be arrested for burning a book in Britain?
