Salman Rushdie calls on Dutch to protect Hirsi Ali

Tuesday 09 October 2007

The British writer Salman Rushdie has accused the Dutch government of abandoning the Somali-born former Dutch MP Ayaan Hirsi Ali, reports Tuesday's Trouw.

He says the anti-Islam campaigner has been left to the mercy of Muslim fanatics and calls on the Dutch government to protect her.

Meanwhile the Danish town of Odense is considering offering Hirsi Ali a home, the Telegraaf reported on Monday evening.
