A radical Islamic preacher has been arrested in Norway after he praised last month's deadly attack by fanatic Muslims that killed eight staff members at the Charlie Hebdo satirical weekly in Paris, the AFP (Agence France-Presse) website reports today (February 28, 2015).
The Iraqi Kurd preacher known as Mullah Krekar said in a television interview broadcast on February 25 that "those who draw caricatures of Mohammed must die."
Krekar -- who had only been freed from prison late last month -- was arrested on February 26 on accusations for inciting crime, police said.
"I am obviously happy with what happened in Paris," the 58-year-old said in the interview with Norwegian channel NRK.
