Different Stories. The Same Urgent Questions.

EMISCO expresses its deep concern over the fatal police shooting of Halit Altun (1984–2026) in Eupen, Belgium, and recalls the tragic murder of Marwa El-Sherbini (1981–2009) in Germany.

While it is essential not to prejudge the findings of the investigation, these cases raise serious questions at a time when anti-Muslim hatred and Islamophobia are increasing across Europe.

Our collective vigilance against Islamophobia, racism and discrimination must be stronger than ever, while ensuring equal justice, human dignity and accountability for all.

Against hatred. For a shared tomorrow.
