New Delhi, August 13: Hours after author Salman Rushdie was attacked in New York, a Pakistani man Rehan M Sabir made threat calls announcing a bounty of 20 million USD for anybody who beheads Dutch Lawmaker Geert Wilders.
As per his bio mentioned on Twitter account, he is a leader of the Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz), the ruling party in Pakistan.
The tweet reads, “After the attack of Salman Rushdie Insha’Allah the next number is @geertwilderspvv. Anyone from the world gave the head of @geertwilderspvv I will give 20 $ million. I want @geertwilderspvv head. We want head. All Muslims want head.”
It should be noted that Wilders has consistently backed former Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesman Nupur Sharma when she got death threats from Islamists for comments she made about the Islamic prophet. Wilders has been speaking constantly against Islamic fanaticism across the globe.
Reacting to the death threat, MP Geert Wilders said, “I can not count the amount of hate and threats they send me now after the barbaric attack on the brave #salamrushdie.”
The account of Rehan M Sabir has been suspended by Twitter following his tweet.
Yesterday, Salman Rushdie was attacked in western New York. Rushdie is best known for his book ‘The Satanic Verses,’ which sparked death threats from Islamists all over the world.
