How is Rushdie’s condition?
After this, Rushdie was immediately sent to the hospital by air ambulance. The attacker has been arrested by the police. His age is said to be around 25 years. The real reason for the attack is still not revealed. At the same time, according to the news of Reuters, the booking agent of author Salman Rushdie, Salman Rushdie is on a ventilator after hours of surgery, and there is also a great possibility of his one eye getting damaged.
At the same time, the White House National Security Adviser to the President of America, Jake Sullivan, said that the attack on Salman Rushdie is condemnable. We are all praying for his speedy recovery. Also, we are grateful to our good citizens for helping us so fast.
Significantly, Rushdie’s novel ‘The Satanic Verses’ on Muslim traditions has always been controversial. In 1989, Iran’s religious leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini issued a fatwa against him. Now, this attack is being linked to that. However, a diplomat from Iran said – we have nothing to do with this attack.
