Controversies
In 2012 his then 19-year-old daughter An-Sofie posed in a bikini and Islamic headdress in a 'shocking poster for the Vlaams Belang party’s campaign against Islamization and discrimination of women using the slogan: ‘Freedom or Islam? Dare to choose.’ This campaign was in collaboration with the organisation 'Vrouwen Tegen Islamisering' (ie, “Women against Islamization”). [4]
