  VS Naipaul 'killed off by FBI'
FBI’ wrong testimony submitted to a Chicago court involving a case
of published cartoon maligning Prophet Mohammed killed-off the acclaimed British writer V. S. Naipal. The documents that the investigation agency submitted in the court had foot note on one of the document mentioning those words ‘the late V. S. Naipal’ a Nobel Prize winning author. Special Agent of the FBI Lorenzo Benedict submitted the sworn testimony to the court, informed The Smoking Gun, a crime web site.
The author, who won the Nobel Prize in literature in 2001, is very much alive at the ripe age of 77. Naipal’s name appeared in the testimony in reference to his wife lady Naipal, the sister of a general of Pakistan allegedly killed by the Islamist militants last year. All these happened in a trial of attack on the employees of a Danish Newspaper by two men, who perpetrated this assault after the publication of the cartoon.
Naipal is considered one of the most acclaimed writers of the world living today. ‘A House for Mr. Biswas’, ‘A Bend in the River’ and ‘The Enigma of arrival’ are few prominent work of Naipal, who is of Trinidad origin.
