Sorry Roland, maybe I am mistaken here but I was under the impression that one
reason why Nasrin was being hounded by Muslims was because she wrote of
atrocities committed by Muslims against Hindus during Partition. Ofcourse, I
can be wrong but my point was only that I will defend anyone whose freedom of
speech is under assault and that my sympathies don't stop with Catholics.
