Concern over anti-Asian backlash

A MUSLIM leader spoke yesterday of his fears of a “rising hostility” towards the Asian community in Scotland after the car bomb attack on Glasgow Airport.

Osama Saeed, the Muslim Association of Britain’s Scottish spokesman, made the warning as police launched an investigation into an attack on an Asian newsagent’s in Glasgow.

A car was rammed into the shop which was then set alight in the early hours of yesterday.
