Charlie Hebdo Publishes another Controversial Front Page against Muslims
Commenting on the decision to ban Islamic swim wears from beaches in Cannes, the latest issue depicts a man and woman with a traditional beard and hijab running naked on the beach with the caption "The reform of Islam: Muslims loosen up”, the independent reported.
The issue was published on Wednesday and the staff claimed that they had received a threat that a new attack was imminent via the magazine’s Facebook page, Le Parisien reported.
Officers from the BRDP branch of the Paris police said this is not the first time the magazine has been threatened since the terror attack on their offices in January 2015.
Eric Portheault, the co-owner of the newspaper, told Le Parisien: "We have filed a complaint with the police of the 13th arrondissement of the Paris police over the threats.
"It never stops”.
The magazine is still under heavy police protection after 10 staff members and two police officers were murdered when terrorists stormed an editorial meeting and opened fire.
In January, it caused outrage when it published a cartoon suggesting Aylan Kurdi, the little Syrian boy who was photographed lying dead on Greek beach sparking an international outpouring of sympathy towards refugees, would have grown up to be an abuser if he had lived.
