Four guilty of Danish terror plot over Islam cartoons

Copenhagen: A Danish court has found four men guilty of planning a terrorist attack on a newspaper that published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad in 2005.

The four are Sweden residents who had been under surveillance by Swedish and Danish intelligence agencies and were subsequently arrested in December 2010, just hours before the foiled attack.

Investigators say the men were planning a shooting spree at the Jyllands-Posten's Copenhagen offices.

The four men were convicted on Monday.
