The Hague’s mayor Pauline Krikke has described claims that a city mosque is funded by a controversial Kuwaiti charity as ‘extremely worrying’ and has called for new legislation to cover such situations. ‘We are talking here about undermining the democratic rule of law on the basis of religion, ideology or other belief,’ Krikke said. ‘We do not have any means at our disposal to tackle this.’
The city’s As Soennah mosque, which has had an important role in boosting the liveability of the Schilderswijk district, is said by the NRC and Nieuwsuur to receive funding from the Revival of Islamic Heritage Society, a Kuwaiti body which is included on a US list of terrorist organisations.
