Brussels Under Pressure to Tackle ‘Sharia Policing’
6th May 2026
Sharia “moral police” must be stopped in Europe, a Swedish MEP has warned, as he demands Brussels track and expose groups accused of harassing residents.
Sweden Democrats (SD) MEP Charlie Weimers said an “EU-wide monitoring framework” should be established to count individuals working to implement strict sharia rules, accusing them of “harassment, intimidation, and threats.”
Weimers describes these “self-appointed moral police” as “immoral thugs,” and claims they have been “surveilling neighbourhoods,” with the overall goal being that “sharia shall dominate here in Europe.”
