Papers reprint Muslim cartoon
DENMARK'S leading newspapers today reprinted a cartoon which depicts the Prophet Muhammad wearing a bomb-shaped turban.
The papers said they wanted to show their commitment to freedom of speech after yesterday's arrest in Denmark of three people accused of plotting to kill the cartoonist.
"We are doing this to unambiguously back and support the freedom of speech that we always will defend," said the Berlingske Tidende.
