Rushdie attacker found guilty of terror charges
Hadi Matar, already serving a 25-year sentence for attempting to kill Salman Rushdie, was convicted in a New York federal court of providing material support to Hezbollah and engaging in terrorism. Prosecutors argued he was motivated by Iran's 1989 fatwa calling for Rushdie's death and plotted the attack over two years. Matar could face life imprisonment on federal charges, adding to his previous conviction.
