The trial of the suspect accused of stabbing Salman Rushdie on stage in New York state is set to take place in Chautauqua County. The attack left Rushdie with severe injuries, including damage to his liver, lost vision in one eye, and a paralyzed hand. Rushdie has expressed mixed feelings about facing his alleged attacker in court. The suspect, who is also charged with providing material support to Hezbollah, a designated terrorist organization, will face separate charges in federal court.
