A recent episode of the Danni Lowinski series upset Muslims in Flanders. In the episode, a Turkish girl wanted help as she was being forced to marry her cousin. One of the characters, bicycle dealer Fuat, said: ‘The Koran says that singles MUST marry.’
Columnist Bahattin Kocak: “It’s not in the Koran! This is fiction, but I think it’s a pity that something like that is proclaimed as truth. This way a million viewers, of whom just a minority know the Koran, get a negative opinion about its content.”
VTM apologized if they didn’t always show ‘a nuanced image of the Turkish community’. The broadcaster stressed that Danni Lowinski is a fictional show which exaggerates issues, people and problems.
