SINGAPORE - Muslim organisations here, including the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore , have condemned the beheading of a teacher in France after he showed caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad in class.

A photo of Mr Paty and a message claiming responsibility for his murder were found on Anzorov's cellphone. He had also tweeted images of the teacher's dead body. Said the spokesman:"This atrocity also plays into the hands of the extremists as they always desire such violence to be glorified and the perpetrators to be hailed as martyrs.

More on this topic "In a world where differing views are easily consumed by Singaporeans, it can get us divided as a nation. Frank and respectful discussions on sensitive issues such as religion must also continue," said AMP. In a post on the Facebook page of Muis, Dr Nazirudin said that murder in the Prophet Muhammad's name is"the most heinous of crimes", and that such acts are inexcusable.
