Amsterdam  - A young Dutch politician and founder of a group of former Muslims is due to present a 15-minute film criticizing Islam at a secret location on Tuesday.

Ehsan Jami, city council member for his one-man-party in Leidschendam-Voorburg near The Hague, is depicted in the English- language film as interviewing the prophet Mohammed who is played by an actor who remains unrecognizable.

Iranian-born Jami, 23, who announced that heresy and women's rights are central themes in the interview, says the production is not an anti-Islam film.

The film showing was set for a secret location for journalists only.

Jami has been living under heavy security protection since August 4, 2007.

The dominant interpretation of Islamic doctrine prohibits Muslims from renouncing their faith.

Self-declared ex-Muslims in Europe have been threatened by orthodox Muslims for renouncing their faith publicly.

Jami, who in the summer of 2007 founded the Dutch affiliate of the European ex-Muslim movement, has among others referred to the Prophet Mohammed as a "horrible man" in several interviews.

He also said during public appearances he wanted to start a debate about domestic violence and human rights in Islam.

Jami lives in a so-called safe house in a secret location.

On March 27, 2007 Geert Wilders, Dutch legislator and founder of the Freedom Party PVV, was the first to present a film criticizing Islam.

On Monday, Wilders confirmed reports that he would tour several countries next spring to present his 16-minute political propaganda film Fitna. (dpa)
