Anna-Karin Larsson, music director at Swedish Radio, tells Dagens Nyheter that the verdict has no significance either in terms of the P3 Gold Prize or whether Yasin's music will be played.
– This makes no difference to us before. We have reasoned on the basis that he might have done what he was accused of, she says.
When asked if “he should be boycotted or if prices should be withdrawn, the answer is no”, continues Anna-Karin Larsson definitely.
Yasin's songs will be played to exactly the same extent as before, according to the music director.
