Qudhac Posted February 19, 2005 AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - A Somali-born Dutch politician who received death threats after making a film critical of Islam has revealed she has been living in hiding on a naval base, a newspaper reported on Friday. NRC Handelsblad said Ayaan Hirsi Ali had revealed her secret residence on a navy base to protest against the circumstances of her hiding. "I want to live in a place of which everybody knows: here lives a threatened member of parliament, and he or she is safe here," Hirsi Ali was quoted as saying. Hirsi Ali returned to public life last month after 75 days in hiding following threats to her life after she made a film critical of Islam with Theo van Gogh, who was murdered on Nov. 2. The newspaper said Hirsi Hirsi Ali was living on a heavily guarded navy base in Amsterdam while anti-immigration populist Geert Wilders whose life has also been threatened, was sleeping in a prison cell in the central Dutch town of Zeist. Van Gogh was murdered in Amsterdam in November. A five-page letter pinned to his body with a knife was addressed to Hirsi Ali accusing her of "terrorising Muslims and Islam". Parliament speaker Frans Weisglas criticised Justice Minister Piet Hein Donner on Friday, saying he should have found an acceptable long term solution for safe housing for Hirsi Ali and Wilders earlier as it was clear they would need protection for more time, NRC Handelsblad said.
