DUBLIN (AP) - Irish police have charged two men from Algeria and
Libya with minor offenses following a weeklong investigation into
Muslim extremists allegedly involved in efforts to kill a Swedish artist.
Ali Charafe Damache, a 49-year-old Algerian, was charged Monday
with sending a threatening text message. A Libyan who used a false
name was charged with immigration violations.
They and five other Muslims -- including Damache's American wife
-- were arrested last week over alleged links to threats against Swedish artist Lars Vilks. The other five were released without
charge.
Al-Qaida terrorists in 2007 placed a $100,000 bounty on Vilks' head because he drew a picture of the Muslim prophet Muhammad with the body of a dog.
