Muslim protesters have attacked controversial Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen during a book launch in Andhra Pradesh state in southern India.

Ms Nasreen backed into a corner as objects rained down and she was threatened with a chair, witnesses said. One witness said Ms Nasreen was slapped.

The writer left Bangladesh for Sweden in 1994 after her controversial writing there led to calls for her execution.

*************************************************
These men attacking a woman should have some shame. They have a habit of hitting women. They try to intimidate them so they can't raise their voice.

I think if the religion is true, the belief steadfast and the faith unswerving then there is no need to get violent. Yes, one should let the objections known, but in a civilized way. Being civilized is one most important things a religion teaches.
