On Tuesday, the prosecutors Birgit van Roessel and Paul Velleman said the MP should be found not guilty of the concept of group insult.
By likening the Koran to Hitler's Mein Kampf, Wilders was focusing on Islam and the Koran, rather than Muslims, even if the statement can be considered upsetting, the public prosecutors said during court hearings in Amsterdam.
The public prosecution department was forced to take the case by the high court after anti-racism campaigners protested at its refusal to prosecute Wilders.
The defence will begin its case later this month.
