Rushdie Saldırganına Terör Suçlamasıyla Mahkumiyet

Özet · AI üretimi

ABD'de federal bir jüri, 2022 Ağustos ayında New York'ta bir kültür merkezinde yazar Salman Rushdie'ye yönelik kanlı bıçaklı saldırıyı düzenleyen Hadi Matar'ı 'terör eylemi gerçekleştirmekten' suçlu buldu. 28 yaşındaki Lübnan asıllı Amerikalı Matar, ABD Başsavcısı Michael DiGiacomo'nun ifadesiyle, 'İran liderlerinin terörist değerleriyle uyum sağlamayı seçti' ve saldırıyı aylarca planladı. Karar, Rushdie'nin 1989'dan bu yana İran'daki rejimin ölüm fetvası altında yaşadığı ve süregelen tehditlerin vardığı noktayı gösteriyor. Mahkumiyet, ABD'nin yabancı hükümetlerle bağlantılı terörizmle mücadeledeki kararlılığını ortaya koyuyor ve İran'ın sınır ötesi şiddet eylemlerine verdiği destek konusundaki tartışmaları alevlendiriyor. Rushdie'ye yönelik saldırı, ifade özgürlüğü ve sanatçılara yönelik koruma tartışmalarını yeniden gündeme getirirken, dava siyasi motivasyonlu saldırıların terör eylemi olarak yargılanması açısından emsal oluşturabilir. Karar, ABD-İran ilişkilerinde zaten gergin olan diplomatik ve siyasi bağlamda yeni bir gerilim unsuru olarak öne çıkıyor.

    Rushdie assailant convicted of terrorism charges

    A federal jury on Wednesday convicted novelist Salman Rushdie's assailant of "engaging in an act of terrorism" for the bloody August 2022 attack at a New York cultural center. Hadi Matar, a 28-year-old Lebanese American, "chose to align his values with the terroristic values of the leaders of Iran," said US Attorney Michael DiGiacomo, adding the defendant spent months planning the stabbing that nearly killed Rushdie and left him blind in one eye.

    Novelist Salman Rushdie's convicted assailant found guilty of federal terrorism charges

    The man who stabbed and partially blinded author Salman Rushdie at a speaking engagement in 2022 was found guilty on Wednesday of federal terrorism charges for the attack, which prosecutors said was incited by death threats over Rushdie’s novel The Satanic Verses. Hadi Matar, 28, already serving a 25-year prison term on state charges of attempted murder for the knife assault, now faces a maximum penalty of life behind bars when he is sentenced on his federal conviction, scheduled for November 3. A US District Court jury in Buffalo, New York, deliberated for only two hours before finding Matar guilty on all counts attempting to provide material support to Hezbollah, engaging in terrorism transcending national boundaries and providing material support to terrorists. The verdict capped a trial that began last Tuesday and included prosecution testimony from Rushdie, 79, winner of the prestigious Booker Prize for his 1981 novel, Midnight’s Children. Neither Matar nor anyone else was called to the witness stand by the defence. At the time of the attack, Rushdie had faced threats on his life since the 1988 publication of his fourth novel, The Satanic Verses. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, then Iran’s supreme leader, denounced the book as blasphemous, and in 1989 issued a religious edict, or fatwa, calling on Muslims to kill Rushdie and anyone else involved in the book’s publication. Years in seclusion According to evidence presented at his trial, Matar spent more than a year researching the fatwa before attempting to fulfill the edict with an attack on Rushdie while the author was on stage speaking at the Chautauqua Institution, an arts and education centre, in Mayville, New York, on August 12, 2022. Rushdie, who spent the first decade of the fatwa in hiding, was stabbed more than a dozen times in the head, neck, torso and left hand. The India-born author lost sight in his right eye and suffered damage to his internal organs. A second man was also wounded in the attack. Audience members rushed on to the stage to subdue the attacker. US-born Matar, who also has Lebanese citizenship, lived in Fairview, New Jersey, and was found guilty of attempted murder in a New York state court in February 2025. He was sentenced three months later to 25 years in prison. Rushdie, who was born into a Muslim Kashmiri family in India and later obtained British and US citizenships, spent most of the 1990s in seclusion under the protection of the British police but adopted a higher profile more than two decades ago, moving to New York City.
