Terrorism trial begins over Salman Rushdie stabbing
Hadi Matar, who attempted to kill Salman Rushdie during a 2022 speech, is on trial in a federal case accusing him of terrorism. Prosecutors allege Matar acted to fulfill a decades-old fatwa calling for Rushdie's death over his novel "The Satanic Verses," with evidence suggesting loyalty to Iran and Hezbollah. Matar faces a potential life sentence if convicted, as the trial examines his motive and connections to the Islamic Republic's directives.
