Description
The UN Human Rights Council votes to condemn recent Koran burning incidents, but many countries declined to back , fearing the resolution encroaches too far on free speech. The United Nations' top rights body backed the resolution by 28 votes in favour, with 12 against and seven abstentions. "This draft resolution is about human rights impacts of such vile acts and protection against acts of religious hatred," says Khalil Hashmi, the Permanent Representative of Pakistan to the UN.
