 British author Salman Rushdie talks to the press at Christiansborg Castle in Copenhagen Wednesday November 13, 1996. Rushdie arrived Wednesday to receive a literary award. The Danish government cancelled earlier plans for a trip after security officials had been informed of a threat to Rushdie's life. Rushdie was sentence to death by the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini of Iran, calling his 1989 novel "The Satanic Verses" blasphemous of Islam. AP Photo/Bjarke Oersted Got any interesting photos?
