:00:00.:00:07.

A man has been arrested in connection with the fatal

:00:08.:00:11.

stabbing of a shopkeeper on the south side of Glasgow.

:00:12.:00:13.

Tonight local people held a vigil to remember forty-year

old Asad Shah, who was found seriously injured outside his news

:00:18.:00:19.

agency and convenience shop in Shawlands last night.

:00:20.:00:25.

On Thursday, Mr Shah had posted a message on a social media page,

:00:26.:00:28.

Police say the death is being treated as "religiously prejudiced".

:00:29.:00:33.

They have also confirmed that both Mr Shah and the man arrested

:00:34.:00:36.

in connection with his death are Muslims.

:00:37.:00:38.

This is Asad Shah behind the counter of his store last August.

:00:39.:00:45.

Last night, when police were called, just after 9.00pm, they found

:00:46.:00:50.

Mr Shah in the street, not far from his shop,

:00:51.:00:57.

Today, as teams and police search teams

:00:58.:01:05.

continued their investigations, local people came to

:01:06.:01:06.

Every morning we shook hands and said good day,

:01:07.:01:09.

He told me he was saying prayers for my husband to get better again.

:01:10.:01:19.

I think his customers loved him as well.

:01:20.:01:24.

When police arrived last night they found another

:01:25.:01:36.

The local MP was one of Mr Shah's many customers.

:01:37.:01:42.

He was quite a character in this area.

:01:43.:01:45.

People here are are very shocked and saddened by what happened.

:01:46.:01:53.

Police have arrested a 32-year-old man in connection with his death.

:01:54.:01:57.

An investigation is underway to establish the full circumstances

:01:58.:01:59.

of his death and that they are treating it

:02:00.:02:01.

The imam of Scotland's largest mosque has expressed support

:02:02.:02:12.

for an extremist, executed in Pakistan for murdering the former

:02:13.:02:14.

The murder was carried out because of the governor's opposition

:02:15.:02:21.

Reformers at the mosque have condemned the messages

:02:22.:02:25.

Our Home Affairs Correspondent, Reevel Alderson reports.

:02:26.:02:32.

Thousands gathered earlier this month to protest at the execution

:02:33.:02:36.

in Pakistan of extremist Mumtaz Qadri much he had murdered

:02:37.:02:41.

a Punjabi politician who supported Christians persecuted under

:02:42.:02:44.

Many have been angered by the private messages

:02:45.:03:02.

from the image, Maulana Habib Ur Rehman ray on social media.

:03:03.:03:04.

We have obtained copies of his messages about the execution

:03:05.:03:07.

He writes "he's disturbed and upset."

:03:08.:03:19.

In another he agrees Mumtaz Qadri was a murderer but added:

:03:20.:03:26.

Ummat, the term for Muslims as a whole.

:03:27.:03:37.

The governance of this mosque, which is Scotland's largest,

:03:38.:03:40.

has been the subject of controversy for some time.

:03:41.:03:43.

It's currently under investigation by Scotland's charities watchdog.

:03:44.:03:47.

There is a deep rift between the older traditionalist

:03:48.:03:58.

members here and the younger reformers.

:03:59.:04:03.

Reformers at the mosque have been demanding more

:04:04.:04:04.

This is an Imam expressing such views what views is he expressing

:04:05.:04:08.

Why is it OK to say this about a terrorist in Pakistan,

:04:09.:04:12.

yet by the same hand to be offering prayers for the victims of terrorist

:04:13.:04:16.

his comments show conservatives at the mosque are failing

:04:17.:04:45.

to stampout extremist or ultra conservative views.

:04:46.:04:55.

at his home in Aberdeenshire, police have been questioning drivers

:04:56.:04:57.

They say a "heavy weapon" was used in what they call a "brutal" attack.

:04:58.:05:05.

Police are trying to trace two men seen talking to Mr McKandie

:05:06.:05:08.

It'll be ten years tomorrow since the introduction

:05:09.:05:13.

It's now an accepted part of Scottish life,

:05:14.:05:18.

The moment a decade ago smokers had to take it outside.

:05:19.:05:26.

Since then, this GP says he's witnessed first-hand

:05:27.:05:28.

the legislation's positive influence.

:05:29.:05:32.

I used to regularly get children coming in having been out

:05:33.:05:35.

to a restaurant or been out with their family and exposed

:05:36.:05:40.

to passive smoke and coming in to me with worsening asthma

:05:41.:05:43.

symptoms or worsening of their breathing.

:05:44.:05:49.

That seems to be thing that has really dramatically reduced.

:05:50.:05:51.

Tobacco-related illnesses have gone down and fewer people are smoking.

:05:52.:05:56.

Rates in Scotland are still higher than the rest of the UK.

:05:57.:06:01.

The pub trade say the ban has had a devastating effect.

:06:02.:06:05.

We were told at the time thousands more people will come into nour pubs

:06:06.:06:09.

now they are smoke-fry, people won't smell of smoke

:06:10.:06:11.

It's nonsense then, it's still nonsense.

:06:12.:06:14.

Scottish Government hope to create the first smoke-free generation.

:06:15.:06:26.

A measure of the smoking ban impact that the key battle ground for those

:06:27.:06:33.

who share the aim is no longer a pub like this.

:06:34.:06:35.

Let's see what weather we can expect for the rest of the Easter holiday.
