The Union of European Turkish Democrats (UETD), a Turkish lobby group, has filed a criminal complaint against the German newspaper Die Welt for printing several of the Mohammed cartoons. The group claims that printing the cartoons was a public insult against a religious group. Abdullah Emil, general secretary of UETD, said: "It is not the point of a free press to insult the religious sensibilities of nearly 3 million Muslims in Germany with provocations of this kind," reports Reuters.
