Minister of Municipal
Affairs, Erna Solberg, says to Aftenpoasten that if
the department receives support by the courts for
its decision to expel Krekar, then the Norwegian
authorities will not be stopped by threats.
Mullah Krekar came to Norway as a quota refugee in
1991. Thgroughout the 90s Krekar worked to set up an
armed group named Ansar al-Islam in Northern Iraq.
In 2003 Solberg decided that Krekar should be
expelled on the grounds that he was a threat to
national security.
Krekar has brought the decision to court, with the
aim to have it declared invalid..
