Muslims seek 'reciprocal respect'
VIGEVANO -- The Islamic community of this Italian city wrote a letter praising Pope Benedict XVI as he began a visit marred by a reported attack by Muslims on a Christian convert.
The 80-year-old Pope began a 24-hour visit yesterday to this city near Milan with a mass in Vigevano's Piazza Ducale.
The visit was marred on Friday when a Moroccan man who had married a local Italian woman and converted to Christianity was beaten by Muslims and needed hospital treatment, according to Italian news reports.
In a letter given to the city's bishop for the pope, the Muslim community told him they were committed to "a common path of understanding and reciprocal respect."
