The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Sunday said that measures need to be taken to avoid repeated acts of desecration to the Quran.

The announcement was made during an emergency session over the burning of a Quran in Sweden last week.

"The organization urged the governments of the countries concerned to take effective measures to prevent their recurrence, denouncing the repetition of these despicable attacks and all attempts to desecrate the sanctity of the Quran and other Islamic symbols and sanctities," the OIC said.
