Following the appearance of the controversial “Islam map,” signboards with images depicting a man with beard and skullcap and reading “Attention: Political Islam is nearby. See Islam Map for further info” started to appear in recent days.
According to a statement by Islamic Religious Authority in Austria (IGGiO) on Wednesday, the signboards expose many mosques to attacks.
The “Islam map”, which shares detailed information of the country’s Muslims and their institutions, should be canceled before it causes more provocation and danger, the statement said.
