''A Danish newspaper has reprinted a caricature satirising the Prophet Muhammad that sparked violent protests in the Muslim world two years ago.

The move by Jyllands-Posten comes a day after the arrests of three people suspected of planning to attack the cartoonist who drew the caricatures.

Two Tunisians and a Dane of Moroccan origin were held "to prevent a murder linked to terrorism", officials said.

Jyllands-Posten originally published the cartoons in September 2005.

Danish embassies were attacked around the world and dozens died in riots that followed.

'Defiant'

Jyllands-Posten reprinted the caricature both in its Wednesday printed edition and on its website, the paper's press manager Tage Clausen told the BBC News website.

Two other Danish newspapers are reportedly planning to reprint the cartoons as part of their coverage of the issue.

They say they want to show that they will not be intimidated by fanatics, the Associated Press news agency reports. ''

Good for them, I say: we should not be cowed by these religious fanatics.

By the way, is this a new standard spelling of the prophet's name?
