A Muslim taxi driver drove from Yorkshire to Glasgow and murdered a shopkeeper because he claimed he disrespected the Prophet Muhammad and his faith, a court has heard.
Asad Shah, 40, who ran a convenience store in the city's Shawlands area, died following the attack by 32-year-old Tanveer Ahmed on March 24 this year.
At the High Court in Glasgow, Ahmed, from Bradford in West Yorkshire, admitted murdering Mr Shah.
Mr Shah, an Ahmadi Muslim who moved from Pakistan to Glasgow in 1998, was discovered outside his shop on Minard Road with stab wounds and taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

One down, one billion to go.
As far as I'm concerned, that is an absolute defense. The accused should be released immediately. Besides, what is punishment for murder in the UK - a stern warning?

Well, the law is the law!
The shopkeeper embraced the wrong kind of diversity. In the future, diversity will consist of a uniform culture of goat humping head choppers.
Yeah, well, you shoulda heard what his friend said.
No, no they are not. They are in complete accord with the teachings of Islam.
The social fabric of the UK is enriched by their diversity!
No, the shopkeeper belonged to some strange Islamic sect (Ahmadi?) that apparently rejected most of the Koran, and embraced other religions. Too bad he didn't come all the way to Christ, but he wasn't a ticking time bomb like other Islamics. Thus he was deemed a heretic, and had to die.
What a shame. We may never know what the shooters motive was. Probably hated gays.
Asad Shah had posted a Facebook message in which he wished a very happy Easter to his 'beloved Christian nation' and suggesting people follow in 'The Real Footstep of Beloved Holy Jesus Christ'.
This comment manifests a depraved and murderous mind.
