Singapore coffee shop forced to remove anti-Danish sign
SINGAPORE, Feb 6 (Reuters) - Singapore police on Monday asked a
cafe near the city-state's central business district to remove a
sign which said that Danish citizens were not welcome.
The sign -- which read "Citizens of DENMARK are not welcome in
Samar until further notice" -- was displayed at the entrance of the
cafe near Arab Street, an area dominated by Muslim-owned shops and
businesses.
It follows the publication of cartoons depicting the Prophet
Mohammad in a Danish newspaper, which have sparked protests in
several countries around the world.
"The police asked us to remove it," Saiful Bahari, the coffee
shop's supervisor, told Reuters, adding that someone had filed a
complaint. The sign was posted on Friday afternoon.
"The matter is not over yet. The inspector is waiting to meet the
owner of the cafe," Bahari said.
The police confirmed that they had requested the removal of the
sign.
"On Feb 4th, at about 10.30 pm, the police received several calls
informing them that a cafe at Kandahar Street had displayed a
notice indicating that persons of a certain nationality were not
welcome. The police are looking into it," a police spokeswoman told
Reuters.
