Bless him, Mohammed Bouyeri got sent down for quite a long time by a court in the Netherlands. In cunning legal fashion, he 'told the court he had acted out of religious conviction'.
The Beeb report goes on to say: '..clutching a copy of the Koran, he said that "the law compels me to chop off the head of anyone who insults Allah and the prophet".'
Odd thing is, I can't find any reference to that in the Koran.
Maybe he has the new Penguin version.
His sentence carries no possibility of parole. Oh well.
