The five major newspapers in Denmark have reprinted the controversial cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad with a bomb in his turban.
The newspapers decided to re-publish the cartoon in response to the arrest on Tuesday of three people who allegedly were planning to kill the artist who drew the cartoon, Kurt Westergaard.
The suspects are a Moroccan born Dane and two Tunisians.
Angry demonstrations occurred in many Islamic countries when the cartoons were first published two years ago.
The demonstrations led to some 150 people being killed.
