The reason MUCF is launching an investigation is that some of the congregations singled out are affiliated with religious communities that receive government funding.
To qualify for government funding, a religious community must meet certain requirements, including the state's democratic conditions. These include a requirement that the organization and its representatives must not act in violation of fundamental freedoms and rights or the principle of the equal value of all people.
"State funds should only go to organizations that meet the conditions set by the state. In light of what has emerged, we have called in the national organizations and have also launched a special investigation," says Magnus Jägerskog, Director General of MUCF, according to a press release.
