The Danish publishing house JP/Politiken Hus – which publishes the newspapers Jyllands-Posten, Ekstra Bladet and Politiken – has increased the security at its offices in Copenhagen and in Jutland. ”We have beefed up our security because of the terror attack on Charlie Hebdo,” the publishing house wrote in a statement to DR Nyheder. ”The police have also increased their presence at our addresses at Rådhuspladsen and in Viby.” JP/Politiken Hus’s security is already tight thanks to the Mohammed cartoons that Jyllands-Posten originally published in 2005, which Charlie Hebdo reprinted in 2007.
