The man accused of stabbing novelist Salman Rushdie in western New York pleaded not guilty to second-degree attempted murder and assault charges and was held without bail.
Sir Salman Rushdie says he 'has no explanation' for how he survived a brutal stabbing, writing in his new book that it felt like 'a miracle'.
It led to him spending six weeks in hospital and losing his right eye. Doctors said he was lucky to escape with his life. Sir Salman, 76, is the author of 1988 novel The Satanic Verses, which led to the supreme leader of Iran calling for his death and a £2.5million bounty placed on his head. In the decades since, he said, he had 'sometimes imagined my assassin rising up in some public forum'.
