COPENHAGEN — A Somali man convicted of terrorism for breaking into the home of a Danish cartoonist who had caricatured the Prophet Muhammad was sentenced Friday to nine years in prison.

The Aarhus city court ruled that Muhideen Mohammed Geelle should be expelled from Denmark after serving his sentence.

The 29-year-old entered cartoonist Kurt Westergaard’s home armed with an ax on New Year’s Day 2010. Westergaard locked himself inside a panic room and was not hurt.
