CNN —The man accused of stabbing author Salman Rushdie and another person onstage has been scheduled for trial in January, prosecutors say. Hadi Matar is expected to stand trial January 8, Chautauqua County District Attorney Jason Schmidt said Friday. Rushdie was blinded in the eye and the attack also affected the use of one of his hands. A week after the stabbing, Matar, then 24, pleaded not guilty to charges of second-degree attempted murder and second-degree assault, CNN previously reported. Rushdie has a memoir, “Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder,” set to be published next year.

Police said there was no immediate indication of a motive for the attack that left Rushdie severely injured and on a ventilator after surgery. "I'm not aware that he's ever asked us to provide additional security, and I'm also not aware that he ever brought a security detail with him," she said.
