Murdered Muslim Man Gets £22,000 In Donations To Support His Family After Customers Opened A Go Fund Me Page

A fundraising page set up by the devastated customers of a much-loved Muslim shopkeeper who was killed in a “racially prejudiced” attack has so far received more than £22,000 in donations to support his family.

Asad Shah, 40, was found seriously injured in the street outside his shop in Shawlands, Glasgow, just after 9pm on Thursday, and later died in hospital.

He is believed to have been stabbed and stamped to death.

Four of his regular customers said they decided to set up a ‘Support for Mr Shah’ fundraising page on the Go Fund Me website to contribute towards the cost of his funeral and to provide financial support to his family in the coming months.
