UK Man Jailed For Killing Shopkeeper Over Islam 'disrespect' by PetmaxFlame: 5:22am On Aug 10, 2016
A British man who killed a fellow Muslim because he felt he had disrespected Islam has been sentenced to at least 27 years in prison.

Tanveer Ahmed admitted stabbing and beating shopkeeper Asad Shah to death at his Glasgow convenience store in March.

Prosecutors said Ahmed, 32, told police his actions were motivated by Shah's "disrespect (for) the Quran, the Prophet Muhammad, Allah and faith."

Shah was a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community, which differs from mainstream Islam in that it doesn't regard Muhammad as the final prophet.

Ahmed did not know his victim but had seen statements he had posted online.

Judge Rita Rae sentenced Ahmed Tuesday to life with no chance of parole for 27 years. She said he committed a "barbaric" crime and had shown no remorse.

This thing is even everywhere. Mods will never put this in fp to teach others in Nigeria that violence does not pay but if it is "Pastor kills his neighbor" news now, it will be posted to FP twice.

27yrs? Why not transport him to yonder to meet his victim? Always killing for their religion as if their religion can create life.

He probably should be sentenced to life imprisonment. If he can do that to a fellow muslim, he would have killed a christian and his family. When will this ''fighting for islam'' madness stop?
