Two people have been charged after a video emerged of a man burning a Koran and another man attacking him outside the Turkish consulate in London.
Hamit Coskun, 50, from Derby, had been charged with a religiously aggravated public order offence after he was filmed apparently burning the book in Rutland Gardens, Knightsbridge on Thursday, the Metropolitan Police said.
Footage posted to X showed a man burning a book outside the barrier to the Turkish consulate.
The same man is then seen lying on the ground as someone kicks him and slashes towards him with a knife before walking away.
Social media footage showed a man being kicked on the ground by his knife-wielding attacker.
