A Muslim taxi driver who killed a popular Glasgow | :00:00. | :00:28. | |
shopkeeper after claiming he had disrespected the prophet Muhammad | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
Tanveer Ahmed confronted travelled from Bradford before confronting | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
Sentencing Ahmed to a minimum of 27 years, the judge described it | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
as a brutal, barbaric and horrific crime for which he had | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
Tanveer Ahmed berating Asad Shah after driving to his shop | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
But that night in March, Ahmed had arrived from Bradford | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
intending to mete out much more than criticism. | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
After this verbal attack he released an onslaught of what the judge | :00:59. | :01:05. | |
Asad Shah, this well-liked, friendly shopkeeper, died in | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
It was videos like this, posted online, that had | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
He believed Mr Shah was disrespecting | :01:13. | :01:14. | |
Ahmed was so deeply offended that he decided he had to kill him. | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
A crime, the judge noted today as she addressed Ahmed, that he has | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
It is clear that you are proud of what you did. | :01:24. | :01:33. | |
And you do not consider what you did was wrong. | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
What is particularly disturbing from some of your latest comments | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
to the social worker who prepared the court report, | :01:39. | :01:40. | |
is the fact that if met with similar circumstances in the future | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
You seem oblivious to the fact you have devastated a family, | :01:45. | :01:52. | |
the family of Mr Shah, leaving them bereft of a much-loved | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
Immediately after the judge sentenced Ahmed to life | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
with a minimum of 27 years, he raised his arm and shouted | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
Members of Ahmed's family and community in Bradford, | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
mostly left the court without comment, but this man | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
He is respecting his prophet, what is wrong with that? | :02:16. | :02:31. | |
Do you think the sentence was fair? No. | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
There is no doubt that the barbaric murder of Asad Shah | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
But the judge has accepted that it wasn't motivated by a grudge | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
against the Muslim community, of which Mr Shah was a member. | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
Instead, this was a specific attack on Mr Shah because Tanveer Ahmed | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
believed that he had disrespected Islam. | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
The judge's comments that there is no place for such | :02:57. | :03:05. | |
intolerance echoed today by the community. | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
He shouldn't be shown any kind of love. | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
Where there is no remorse, where there is no regrets, | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
then Islam says strongly that such a person should be given a proper | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
sentence and that is what has been served. | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
In the Shawlands area Mr Shah has been much missed by his customers | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
who throughout the years he served with cheer and grace. | :03:23. | :03:30. | |
The impromptu vigil after his death showed their sadness. | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
His family's grief is such that they cannot bear to reopen | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
More than 140,000 students in Scotland received their Higher | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
but a record number of pupils have been offered a university place. | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
There had been fears surrounding late changes | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
This is the full -- the first time that candidates have been offered | :03:55. | :04:01. | |
the full range of national courses. There had been fears | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
surrounding late changes Our education correspondent | :04:04. | :04:04. | |
Jamie McIvor reports. For some, the news came | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
by text or e-mail. For these brave youngsters | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
their good news was live Exceptional results by any standard, | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
especially because their school Some students come from | :04:16. | :04:37. | |
areas of deprivation. I was wondering why is that, | :04:38. | :04:47. | |
and I think the single biggest influence is | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
momentum that happens here. For many students across Scotland | :04:51. | :04:58. | |
it was a day to remember. The overall pass rate | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
was slightly down on last year, but it is still the second highest | :05:06. | :05:17. | |
number of passes on record. We have over 152,000 | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
passes it Higher level. And we have an increase | :05:22. | :05:23. | |
in vocational qualifications that There was no repeat of last year's | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
Higher maths debacle. Last year the pass rate | :05:26. | :05:36. | |
was just 34%. One of the things we do every year | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
is review the process Last year's paper we admitted was | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
more challenging than it should be. Behind the statistics lie | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
the remarkable stories Darren speaks English as his second | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
language and still got five Highers. I studied really hard | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
and I am proud of myself. There are still questions | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
over how the shake-up But today is about celebrations for | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
some and commiserations for others. And if you want some | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
advice from the SQA, A small team of salvage experts has | :06:19. | :06:19. | |
been lowered onto an oil rig which ran aground | :06:20. | :06:28. | |
on the Western Isles on Sunday. The UK Government has said the work | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
to refloat it may take some time. If the weather is good tomorrow, | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
it's planned to put Meetings have been going | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
on throughout the day in Stornoway to decide how to tackle | :06:39. | :06:46. | |
the re-flotation of the oil rig marooned on rocks at Delmore | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
on the West Coast of Lewis. Mid-afternoon the coastguard | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
helicopter arrived. To get the first exploratory crew of | :06:54. | :07:07. | |
salvagers onto the rig. The tolling between the ship the target and the | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
rig broke. aboard right now will carry out | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
the work on the grounded rig. If their mission is a success more | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
will be put on tomorrow to see what further work can be done before | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
the weather breaks. Whatever they find, work | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
will still continue. It's not easy to forecast when an | :07:23. | :07:31. | |
attempt will be made to refloat. By Thursday this week we will be | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
hampered by bad weather again, There will still be | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
a requirement after that After that phase it is getting | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
the right equipment we need to the island to do | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
the re-connections and making sure we have got the right vessels | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
here to try and get it out from where she is | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
sitting at the moment. An enquiry is ongoing as to how it | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
ended up here in the first place. The Western Isles emergency planning | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
group also met this afternoon. Although it might not | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
be an imminent threat. I've asked the team to have a look | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
at checking the tanks and giving me reassurance that the oil is safe | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
where it is. The race to move the rig | :08:15. | :08:22. | |
before worse weather comes ScotRail and the RMT union have been | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
holding further talks to try to resolve the industrial | :08:26. | :08:33. | |
dispute that led to strike Last week, further planned walk-outs | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
by train staff were called off - but a final deal has | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
yet to be reached. The dispute centres on proposals | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
from the operator to run more trains where drivers - | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
rather than guards - It's been a mixed day for the Scots | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
in Team GP at the Rio Olympics. There was huge disappointment | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
for medal hope David Florence, who finished last in the C1 | :08:58. | :08:58. | |
canoe slalom final. But there could be medals | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
for Scottish swimmers Our reporter Kheredine | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
Idessane joins us live Good evening. Hello from the aquatic | :09:04. | :09:21. | |
centre here in Rio. Why are we here? Because for Scots have helped Team | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
GB into the final of the four by 200 metres freestyle relay. They all had | :09:28. | :09:36. | |
terrific swims earlier on. You can see it now. A terrific performance | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
terrific swims earlier on. You can from them in the year to qualify for | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
the final, fastest. That gives them a real chance of some kind of medal | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
later on this evening. We are not sure if all four Scots will make the | :09:49. | :09:54. | |
final. There is a good chance that three of them well. A terrific | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
evening ahead. Well done to them. Disappointment in | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
another open war -- water-based event. David Florence in canoe | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
slalom, he was the world champion and the favourites to pick up a | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
medal. But he had a terrible run today at the Whitewater Centre. He | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
came ten out of ten. A couple of mistakes and a rather crestfallen | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
canoeists went to me afterwards. You get it all the time in both | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
categories and I'm used to disappointment as most people who | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
are competing in elite sport. Now I'm used to getting on with it and | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
getting to the sea to regardless of whether I had one this will come | :10:42. | :10:49. | |
last. -- capital C two. There are great guys out there. Disappointment | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
for them, another four years to wait for the chance for an Olympic medal. | :10:57. | :11:03. | |
Deep disappointment for David Florence. But he goes in the canoe | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
double in a couple of days' time. Elsewhere on the water, good stuff | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
from Katherine Grainger and Alan Sinclair, qualify for finals in | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
their respective boats. But is all about before by 200 metres freestyle | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
relay at about 3:30am. You might want to stay up and watch it because | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
there is a chance that at least three Scots will be coming away with | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
Olympic medals from Apple. Thank you. | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
Now time to find out the weather prospects from Christopher. | :11:36. | :11:43. | |
Generally dry tonight with clear spells. Chile in the countryside. | :11:44. | :11:52. | |
But you might be able to catch the meatier shower. It lasts for about | :11:53. | :11:59. | |
ten days. Tonight, clear skies are still a good chance. They are at | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
their peak later in the week. It dry and bright start tomorrow but it | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
won't last. Some thicker cloud with outbreaks of rain towards the West. | :12:13. | :12:14. | |
Further east more likely to have a outbreaks of rain towards the West. | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
dry and sunny morning. The winds are generally light as well but cloud | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
will increase throughout the day. The exception is Shetland which is | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
likely to hold on to the sunshine. Here is the chart through Wednesday | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
morning. You will notice that cloud edging eastward through the day. | :12:34. | :12:40. | |
More persistent rain likely later on through the afternoon. That's | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
spreading through Northern Ireland into Cumbria, down through Wales, | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
the south-west. The further east you are, reasonably dry. But cloud | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
building year. For temperature is, in Scotland, maybe high teens in the | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
East if you are lucky. But a going downhill day with the cloud | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
building. And when the rain arrives to all parts, and it will be | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
persistent. High-pressure tantalisingly close but around the | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
top of the high, that is where the weather fans arrived, bringing the | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
rain. In the north-west Highlands and Islands, API where warning. | :13:15. | :13:24. | |
Often done on Friday with rain. Cloudy conditions in the rain -- in | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
the West with some cloud. Still raining across the north-west. | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
Temperatures on the up. This weekend for us looks promising. | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
Our next update is during Breakfast at 6:25 tomorrow morning. | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
But, from everyone on the late team here in Glasgow | :13:45. | :13:48. |
