It's the Swedish cartoonist Lars without Vilk was referred, the debate organizer. In 2007, he had received threats from several Islamist groups for publishing a drawing of a head believed to be that of the Prophet Muhammad on a dog's body. Last September, his head was a price on the head of the organization Islamic State.
