A Yemeni newspaper editor is on trial for his life after publishing the Danish Mohammed cartoons: Yemen editor ‘faces death calls’.

Quote:
Yemeni prosecutors have called for a newspaper editor to be sentenced to death for showing cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad, his paper says.

Muhammad al-Asadi was arrested after his publication, the Yemen Observer, showed the Danish cartoons in February.

He denies the charges of offending Islam, under which he is being tried.
As a precedent for putting this editor to death, the prosecution cited the example of Mohammed himself.

Quote:
The paper’s website reported that the prosecution lawyers cited precedents from Muslim history when the prophet was insulted by a woman and then praised her killer.
