MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Municipal authorities received 100 reports in 2015 about people who showed signs of radicalization, compared to 60 notifications in 2014. Eighteen of those reports turned out to have cause, Anna Mee Allerslev told the local broadcaster DR.
"It is a daunting figure for such a small city as Copenhagen. It is too many when you look at our population and compare it with other European and Western cities," Allerslev noted.
In all of the 18 cases that were investigated, the residents in question were found to have propagated a radical interpretation of Islam, the Danish broadcaster said. There was no information given on the background of the individuals involved.
