The attack sent Rushdie to the hospital with severe wounds, including a damaged liver and severed nerves in an arm. It is also believed that Rushdie could end up losing an eye as a result of his injuries.
Initial charges were filed the next day, when Matar’s court-appointed lawyer entered a not guilty plea on his behalf. The prosecutor’s office did not immediately release the new charges.
