3 on book terror rap
THREE men were arrested yesterday after a suspected terrorist attack on the office of a controversial publisher.
Martin Rynja's Gibson Square firm recently agreed to publish The Jewel of the Medina, a novel about the prophet Mohammad and his child bride, which has angered Islamic fundamentalists.
The men, aged 22, 30 and 40, were detained in Islington, north London.
There were reports the incident involved a petrol bomb being pushed through the letterbox of the four-storey building which doubles as the firm's office and Rynja's home.
Several people are believed to have been evacuated.
