'Boy snatched off street, set alight and murdered for being white'
JOHN ROBERTSON LAW CORRESPONDENT

* Evidence given in Kriss Donald murder trial
* One of accused apparently sought revenge for previous assault
* Kriss Donald may have been targetted simply due to being white

Story in full
MURDERED schoolboy Kriss Donald pleaded: "I'm only 15. What did I do?" as he was beaten up and dragged into the back of a car by his abductors, a court heard yesterday.

He was forced face down into the back of a silver Mercedes, threatened with a knife and told there was a gun in the car as he was driven off after being snatched from the street "because he was white".

The High Court in Edinburgh yesterday heard that Kriss was attacked and taken from a street in Pollokshields, Glasgow, because one of the men accused of his murder, Imran Shahid, 29, was angry and sought revenge after claiming he had been attacked with a glass bottle outside a nightclub the night before.

It is alleged that Kriss was later set on fire and murdered. In the days following the discovery of his body, friends and family created an impromptu shrine, featuring photographs and football colours. A witness told the court that one of the gang had said: "He took it quietly."

The witness, Zahid Mohammed, 22, was originally accused of taking part in the murder. He pleaded guilty at the High Court in Glasgow in November 2004 to assault to injury on Kriss and attempting to pervert the course of justice. He was given a five-year jail term and was released on licence on Wednesday after applying for parole, the jurors were told.

The jury also heard that he gave evidence again in November 2004 at the same court in the trial of his co-accused, Daanish Zahid, who is named as an alleged accomplice in the current trial.

Imran Shahid, Mohammed Faisal Mushtaq, 27, and Zeeshan Shahid, 29, deny racially aggravated murder.

All three are on trial in Edinburgh, accused of abducting and killing Kriss by striking him with a knife or knives, then setting him on fire on 15 March, 2004.

Mohammed said that in March 2004 he was subject to a tagging order for motoring offences and possession of a knife. On Monday, 15 March, he went to Mushtaq's home in Pollokshields. The Shahid brothers were there, and Zahid joined them later. Mohammed described Imran Shahid, known as "Baldy", as quite angry and added: "He said he got attacked with a glass bottle the night before, outside a nightclub ... [by] the boys from McCulloch Street [Pollokshields]."

The witness said the "McCulloch Street boys" were white and Imran Shahid had vowed that he was going to take revenge and would "chop them up, take their eyes out, things like that".

It was planned that the group would go out in a car and look in McCulloch Street for "them ... anybody".

Mohammed said Imran Shahid asked for weapons and Mushtaq took a hammer and a screwdriver from a tool box and they were put in a blue carrier bag. Mohammed gave Imran Shahid a knife and helped him to dye his blond hair back to its natural dark colour.

They all got into a silver Mercedes car and drove to McCulloch Street where they saw two boys, now known to be Kriss Donald and a friend, Jamie Wallace, turning into Kenmure Street.

Imran Shahid said to let him out and he began fighting with the boys, especially Kriss. Mohammed agreed with a description of Imran Shahid's build as "massive" and said Kriss was "quite small" and could not fight back. Imran Shahid pushed Kriss into the car while Mushtaq pulled him in from the other side.

The advocate-depute, Mark Stewart, QC, asked how successful Kriss was in resisting and Mohammed replied: "Very little."

Mohammed said he had never met him before the incident. He agreed that nothing would have happened if Kriss and his friend had been Chinese, African-American or Asian. He said they were targeted because they were white.

Mr Stewart asked if Kriss had said anything. Mohammed answered: "Yes, he said, 'I'm only 15. What did I do?' or something like that."

Kriss was "scrunched down" in the footwell at the rear of the car, facing the floor. He was "scared".

Mohammed said that both he and Imran Shahid punched Kriss on the back and Imran Shahid had said: "I'm Baldy. Nobody f***s with me."

Also, Imran Shahid pressed the point of a knife against Kriss's back, and asked if he could feel it. The car went to a flat in the Parkhead area, but no-one was at home. A number of phone calls were made to try to find "a place or a park or something ... to batter Kriss". Imran Shahid threatened Kriss to force him to name the people from were the previous night. Kriss appeared to know what he was talking about and gave a few names.

Mohammed said he was dropped off at Strathclyde Park because he had to be home in time for his tagging curfew.

Next day, he went to Mushtaq's flat and spoke to Zeeshan Shahid, known as Crazy. "I asked what had happened. Crazy said, 'He took it quietly'." Mr Stewart ended by asking Mohammed: "Is the evidence you have given here today, sworn on the holy Koran, the truth?" Mohammed replied: "Yes."

David Burns, QC, for Imran Shahid, said Mohammed had done a deal with the prosecution by which he received a five-year sentence and agreed to give evidence against others. "You knew you would get life imprisonment if convicted of murder, and much less if you pleaded to something less?" asked Mr Burns.

Mohammed said: "Yes."

Donald Findlay, QC, for Mushtaq, accused the witness of being "a liar, pure and simple" and someone who was "cunning and conniving". The witness denied it.

Mr Findlay continued: "Co-incidentally, you were released from prison [in England] the day before you give evidence and got a lift here from the police."

He said on Mohammed's account, he might have supplied the weapon which killed Kriss. "Up to your neck in it is an understatement," suggested Mr Findlay.

Mohammed agreed with Norman Ritchie, QC, for Zeeshan Shahid, that he had been granted parole at the first time of asking and a police agreement that offered him a new home and a new identity when the trial ends.

Mass protests against racist murder in Norway
By Steve James
13 February 2001

Use this version to print | Send this link by email

Tens of thousands of Norwegian citizens took to the streets of the capital Oslo and several other major towns and cities on February 1 to protest the murder of a 15-year-old Ghanaian-Norwegian. Benjamin Labaran Hermansen was killed last month in the Holmlia area of Oslo. With 40,000 on the streets of Oslo alone, press reports estimated the turnout to be the highest seen since a demonstration against the European Economic Community (the predecessor to the European Union) in 1972. Norway's population numbers only four million. Memorial demonstrations were also held on February 6 in the neighbouring Scandinavian capitals of Stockholm and Copenhagen, to coincide with Benjamin's funeral.

Benjamin was the victim of what appears to have been an unprovoked racist attack. Five neo-nazis were immediately arrested and another, Joe Erling Jahr, was held in Denmark pending extradition back to Norway. The alleged perpetrators, around a gang called the “Boot Boys”, include two 17-year-old women and two 21-year-old males. Gang members reportedly told police that under 19-year-old Jahr's leadership they had set out that evening to “get some foreigners”. Another report suggested that the group drove around on a “fishing” expedition looking for someone to attack. One of those arrested, Erik Lauritsen, has already spent seven months in jail for an arson attack on a kiosk run by Kurdish immigrants. Three of those under arrest for Benjamin's murder had been arrested and released two months ago after an attack on a Norwegian-African man. The group had apparently carried out a series of racist attacks and terrorised Holmlia and other areas of Oslo for some months.

One Reuters report suggested that Benjamin might have been targeted because of an appearance he made a year ago on Norwegian state television channel NRK, in which he denounced his treatment at the hands of Danish racists.

The press and the Labour government have called for tougher laws against the country's neo-nazis. Minister of Culture Ellen Horn went on NRK to propose that neo-nazi groups be banned. Horn, along with Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg, Crown Prince Haakon and visiting NATO Secretary General George Robertson, attended the February 1 demonstration. The Dagsavisen newspaper editorialised: “This must be a new eye-opener for the authorities and all the others who have refused to acknowledge Nazism and racism in Norway. Far too few have taken this diabolical wickedness seriously. Far too many have underestimated the explosive criminal force concealed in nazi and racist groupings.”

By presenting the small numbers of nazi thugs and their youthful admirers as something inexplicably alien to Norwegian society, the Labour government and newspapers like Dagsavisen try to conceal the responsibility of all the major parties for the growth of anti-immigrant racism.

Norway has some of the toughest anti-immigration policies in Europe, and the fiercely anti-immigrant and far-right Progress Party (PP) is currently supported by around 22 percent of voters. Labour, both in and out of government, has adapted its policies to embrace the xenophobic agenda put forward by PP and has cooperated with them at all levels of government.

Benjamin's murder was the latest in a series of racially motivated attacks and killings that have been encouraged by the prevailing political attitude to immigrants. The Norwegian Anti Racist Centre recorded 1,300 incidents between 1987 and 2000 that could be classed as racist, including cross burnings, shootings, incidents of arson, vandalism, violence and harassment. In contrast, the Central Statistics Bureau registered just 32 reports of racist incidents in Norway in 2000. In 1999, 17-year-old Indian-born Arve Beheim Karlsen fell to his death while being chased by a gang shouting, “Kill the ******.” To date his tormentors have only been charged with assault.

In 1999, the Norwegian Supreme Court upheld a decision allowing private landlords and accommodation agencies to choose as tenants “Norwegians only”, or people who “have some sort of idea of Norwegian culture and Norwegian way of living”. The attorney general is currently attempting to prevent a UN commission hearing evidence from an Oslo tenant to whom housing was refused on racial grounds.

Asians 'behind most racial violence'
Oldham's police chief has said Asian youths are responsible for more than half the racist attacks in the town.

Chief Superintendent Eric Hewitt said he was concerned about the increase of racist attacks by gangs of Pakistani and Bangladeshi origin.

He said that in the past 12 months there had been 572 racial incidents, 60% of which were committed by Asians against white men.

Mr Hewitt has called an emergency meeting on Friday with community leaders and council representatives to discuss the situation.

The meeting follows an attack last week by a group of Asian men on a white man who was left seriously injured.

The victim, 23-year-old Mark Clayton, was stabbed twice in the leg and lost about five pints of blood when a main artery was severed.

Other recent incidents include one in which a white man was hit on the head by Asian assailants who then set their Rottweiler dog on him.

But an Oldham councillor, Abdul Quayum, criticised Chf Supt Hewitt's decision to focus on assaults committed by Asian men.

Mr Quayum expressed sympathy with the victim of last week's attack and called on the Pakistani and Bangladeshi communities to come forward if they had any information about the crime.

He said such attacks and those committed by white men against Asians were part of a long running problem in the area.

" I think that the issue is broader than that. We really need to get to the root of the problem which has been around for a number of years," he said.

Mr Quayum added that Chief Superintendent Hewitt had singled out Asians for criticism before.

"This is not the first time he's made statements like this. He has a history of blaming only one part of the community," he said.

The chief executive of Oldham Council, Andrew Kilburn, condemned the recent attacks.

"There is simply no excuse for violence between groups of people, whoever the perpetrators might be, whether they are of Asian, black or white origin.

"As a council we have been working and will continue to work with the various agencies in the town," he said.

'Racism not rife'

The Oldham area tops the list of racial incidents reported to Greater Manchester police.

ts 452 incidents in 1999/2000 compare with 207 in Bolton, a larger town with a comparable ethnic population.

But Councillor Keith Pendlebury, who chairs Oldham's social development committee, denied the town was any more violent than neighbouring areas.

He said the figures needed to be put into context.

"The report of Greater Manchester Police, from which the figures are taken, does point out that Oldham has for a number of years had a system of reporting which is better developed than in the other boroughs.

"Oldham Council is not complacent about the situation, but we do argue that Oldham is not substantially different from other similar sized towns in the region where the racial and cultural mix of the population is comparable to ours," he said.

Asian gang guilty of racist killing

AN ASIAN gang who boasted they had killed an Englishman after they kicked him to death in university grounds were yesterday found guilty of his murder.

Sajid Zulfiqar was heard to say: "We have killed the white man. That will teach an Englishman to interfere in Paki business."

Christopher Yates, 30, was felled to the ground and his head "kicked like a football" by Zulfiqar and two other Asian men, the Old Bailey was told.

Zulfiqar, 25, Zahid Bashir, 23, and Imran Maqsood, 21, all unemployed, of Ilford, east London, were remanded in custody for sentencing tomorrow.

Mr Yates was set upon in an unprovoked attack when he came across the group of men, who had been drinking in the car park of the University of East London, in Barking.

Mr Yates's head was stamped on and he died from multiple injuries to his face in November last year, said Anthony Leonard, QC, prosecuting.

MCB vs The Baldy Boys (dunno their gang name, but their leader is Baldy) - MCB attacks them by throwing a glass bottle at one of TBB's guys, they retailiate by finding a kid they think is connected to MCB and killing him.

"Racist witch hunt" and demonstration against racism are 2 different things. Or maybe a demonstration against asian racist crimes, since they commit the majority of racist crimes.

Why would it be necessary to demonstrate specifically against racist crimes commited by asians? Why not make it about general racism? I dont see how specifying the target helps a cause

Exactly in the same way that Germans don't care about genocide, right? :rolleyes:

I hope that is pure sarcasm on your part, because you could not be more wrong!

In Japan (to my knowledge) the second world war is not taught as part of the school agenda, nor is it refer to in history texts. In Germany on the other hand, the holocaust, in all its gorry details, is taught to every single school child, without sugar coating or political bias, and in year 10 every student is taken on an excursion to Auschwitz, Belzec, Chelmno, etc - to a death camp, where they are told of the mass genocide that occurred there, again in all its gory details.

Every German knows of the holocaust and is raised to feel atleast in part responsible for the mass genocide of their forefathers. I very much doubt there is ANY country in the world that cares MORE about genocide.

Btw, if you were being sarcastic, just ignore my random rant.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

As for the kid set on fire for being white issue, in my politically incorrect opinion - yet another example of reverse racism! I personally have nothing but contempt for the way everyone gets up in arms whenever any minority is killed, attacked, hurt, not selected for a job, not selected for a basketball game, stubbs their toe, etc, etc, BUT no-one even notices when a kid who is not a minority gets set on fire and murdered. And if anyone points out this extreme irony, they're a racist!
(my apologies to everyone I undoubtably offended with this paragraph)

However, I imagine a large part of why there was no media attention or outcry was due simply to the world we now live in. Pre 9-11, everyone could have been up in arms, protests and memorials, the whole bit. But Post-911, with every news day reporting on more dead soldiers and insurgents in Iraq and Afganistan, more killed from a terrorist attack in the West, and even more killed in a plane crash, train crash or a random natural disaster, I am not surprised people failed to notice the death, however gruesome and racially motivated, of a single person when compared to the hundreds that are dying all over the world every day in the "War on Terror".

But hey, that's just my opinion, feel free to ignore it.

12% is still a minority. And a group who accounts for 12% of the population commits most of the racist violence crimes in which 60% is asians against whites. That's huge overrepresentation. Besides the percentage of overall asian racism might be higher (i.e: asians agianst south american)

Well gollllllll-eeee, a group that's a victim AND a perpetrator of racist crimes. It begs the question of who started it? At this point, it doesn't look like anyone's even being killed for being white; they're killed for not being Pakistani. It doesn't matter who's committing these crimes. It does matter that white folks are more readily available victims, sure. If white people don't want to be killed for being white, they should paint themselves green so they can be killed for being green. That or we need to start re-educating these people to play by the rules, and then start telling people in whatever way works best to back off the law-abiding ones.

And as for statistics of racist violence, no-one will really know what the attackers motivation is, no matter what we do to try and figure it out. It's ridiculous to try. Therefore, any "statistics" will be purely estimative and will be wrong, even if it is to a percentage.

The fact that the victim was white is no more important than the fact that he was male or that he was 15 years old. He was a kid who was brutally killed. I think he's been victimized enough, without you exploiting his death for the sake of your personal agenda.

He won't be able to, because it isn't actually true.

The typical hate offender is a young white male (most homophobic offenders are aged 16-20, and most race hate offenders under 30) who lives locally to the victim.

From http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/crime-victims/reducing-crime/hate-crime/

This report was published on 2002 (and is about 1999 figures) but I'd assume it's still relevant.

In 1999, the risk of being the victim of a racially motivated incident was considerably higher for members of minority ethnic groups than for White people.

The highest risk was for Pakistani and Bangladeshi people at 4.2 per cent, followed by 3.6 per cent for Indian people and 2.2 per cent for Black people. This compared with 0.3 per cent for White people.

Racially motivated incidents represented 12 per cent of all crime against minority ethnic people compared with 2 per cent for White people.

The highest risk was for Pakistani and Bangladeshi people at 4.2 per cent, followed by 3.6 per cent for Indian people and 2.2 per cent for Black people. This compared with 0.3 per cent for White people.

Racially motivated incidents represented 12 per cent of all crime against minority ethnic people compared with 2 per cent for White people.

From http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=267


Yes but since white people are the majority, more white people are subject to racist violence, in numbers. And still we dont know which group commits the most racist violence. 4.2 per cent of Pakistani and Bangladeshi might be subject to it but a majority of this may be caused by other non-white people.
In the case of North western England, most racist violence are done by asians against whites.


I don't think it's unreasonable to question the motives for starting this thread, considering the OP is either incredibly ignorant of the facts or is deliberately falsifying them.

Are we honestly at a point where we can't be outraged simply because a PERSON was snatched off the street and murdered? I don't care why somebody did it, that's fucked up. The fact that the victim was white is no more important than the fact that he was male or that he was 15 years old. He was a kid who was brutally killed. I think he's been victimized enough, without you exploiting his death for the sake of your personal agenda.

We are talking about racist violence. Hate crimes on the other hand have a broader meaning, including homophobia, as is exampled on your quote.But there are a greater number of racist attacks than there are homophobic attacks, so it's reasonable to conclude that has bearing on this. Particuarly as they don't say otherwise in that report and you have not provided one iota of evidence to the contrary. Instead prefering to just repeat yourself again and again. You seem to believe that your view is more important than the facts. Frankly, considering the lack of critical faculties you've constantly shown on this thread, I'd consider my five year old nephew to be a more reliable source than you.

Yes but since white people are the majority, more white people are subject to racist violence, in numbers. And still we dont know which group commits the most racist violence.So, as a percentage of the population, you accept that whites commit more racially motivated incidents then? You don't seriously think that you shouldn't judge the number of incidents in relation to the number of a particular ethnicity in a society, surely? Of course you don't. That would be a completly farcial position to take. 4.2 per cent of Pakistani and Bangladeshi might be subject to it but a majority of this may be caused by other non-white people.Substantiate or fuck off.

One thing you'll rarely see, however, is an honest response to the issue at hand. No, they only need to recite those mystic syllables. They don't even need to think while they do so.

The fact is, the incident in question was a racially-motivated crime. Beyond the crime itself, any "racism" lies in denial of this fact. But don't expect the KA-RAPs to acknowledge this anytime soon.

Hate crimes arent only homophobic and racist crimes. So not only you are ignorant, you are only assuming that there are more racist attacks than homophobic attacs. Even then, the typical hate crime offender, white male, might be typical with a minor majority. And that majority might not hold true if we only consider racist violent attacks.


Particuarly as they don't say otherwise in that report and you have not provided one iota of evidence to the contrary. Instead prefering to just repeat yourself again and again.

You still dont get it, I see. We only know the risk factors of each group being victim of a racist incident. We dont know who does it. While asian risk factor might be higher, on per capita basis, most of it might be caused by blacks, not whites. I hope I put it simple enough this time, so you can understand.


You don't seriously think that you shouldn't judge the number of incidents in relation to the number of a particular ethnicity in a society, surely? Of course you don't. That would be a completly farcial position to take.


*sigh*. I do think that. It's just you dont understand. You seem to keep not getting that it's quite clear that minorities are overrepresented in crime statistics as the perpetrator of racist incidents. Around 90% of Britain is white. And 0.5% of the whites are in risk of being victim of a racist incident. Now, all minorities need to be overreprsented as the perpetrator of racist incidents, to reach this number, especially relative to the number that is needed for whites to be the perpetrator of racist incidents against all other minorities. And you can even use the highest minority risk, pakistani and bangledeshi to calculate this, while in fact other minorities have lower risks.

You should have fucked off at the first place when you were thinking that it was whites who were responsible for all racist attacks against minorities. You ignored the inter-minority attacks. That wasnt the silliest conclusion you had reached though, there were many.

I see that you still cant read. And again, I was right thinking you were flattering yourself way too much on the reading comprehension issue.

Aside from the inherent problems of the data collection methods used by the BCS, the wording of the page you are quoting is '0.5% or less for white groups'. Now this could mean either all the white groups have a risk factor of about 0.5% or that one of them does and the rest have lower. Until you can come up with data that shows the figures for the number of whites subject to racially motivated crime in the UK I still say you are sidestepping the question.
