Beheading plans uncovered for Danish journalists |
2010-03-24 |
The US court hearing into terror suspect David Headley has revealed further details of a plot to kill journalists at the Jyllands-Posten newspaper for their role in the 2005 Mohammed cartoon affair. Headley last week pleaded guilty to charges as a condition of his plea bargain agreement. It had already been established that a terror plot involving a truck bomb at the newspaper offices was part of a wider plan to hunt down cartoonists and the newspaper's cultural editor. The new information, released publicly last week, shows that Headley's Pakistani contact allegedly ordered him to behead hostages from the newspaper staff and throw the heads from office windows to provoke the largest possible response from authorities. |
