Right..if he entered the country and was arrested because he once wrote something in a book then that is clearly wrong no matter what. If he was promoting that book in the country or made any sort of public statement about his belief then he should have known that would get him in trouble. It doesn't matter if I agree with the law (again I don't at all) but I don't think some governments would care if I didn't agree with their requirements to cover my face either. I would still get the punishment.
