A brilliant example of someone who was defending their property.
No action to be taken against man after 19-year-old shot dead during farm burglary.

Even at his last #PMQs Keir Starmer told lies. He said nobody ever walks out of Downing Street alone on his watch and it reminded me of that day the Novak family walked out alone and that Rhiannon Whyte’s mother was never allowed in.
Irish Taxi Driver Who Sexually Assaulted 14-Year-Old Schoolgirl in Scotland Walks Free From Court.
Farrukh Naseem Butt, 45, an Irish national (as confirmed by his Companies House records) and private hire taxi driver from East Kilbride, Glasgow, has walked free from court after sexually assaulting a 14-year-old schoolgirl.
Butt picked up the teenager from a friend’s house in Edinburgh in the early hours of 16 February last year and was driving her home to Midlothian when he diverted into a supermarket car park and assaulted her.
At Edinburgh Sheriff Court today, Sheriff Douglas Kier described the offence as serious but chose a direct alternative to custody.
The sheriff told Butt: "You have been found guilty of a serious sexual offence against a 14-year-old girl who had placed her trust in you as a private hire driver. You took advantage of that position of trust and you exploited her vulnerability for your own personal gratification."
Butt was ordered to complete 100 hours of unpaid community work, placed on a three-year supervision order, and added to the Sex Offenders Register for three years. He must also attend a sex offenders rehabilitation programme and is banned from contacting children under 16 or visiting play parks.
His defence lawyer, Anna Kocela, said Butt is a first-time offender who is now unemployed, and that prison would leave his wife vulnerable while caring for their three children.
Butt’s private hire licence was suspended by Edinburgh Council in May 2025 and is expected to be permanently revoked.

It is absolutely outrageous that this man is going to be leading the country in a few weeks. A rigged by-election, a rigged leadership election. He destroyed #GM as Mayor and has twice failed to be party leader. The country has just been downgraded and it's #FUBAR
💷 Brexit is costing Scotland an estimated £30 billion a year.
🥃🐟🍓 Our food, drink and agricultural industries cannot afford to be an afterthought.
That’s why I pressed Ministers on the impact of recent post-Brexit trade agreements on Scotland’s farming communities, particularly those in my constituency of Arbroath and Broughty Ferry.
@FarRightSkip I do so love being called nazi for questioning an invading country’s rights. Especially when that country literally gave shelter to actual Nazis.
@TheNorfolkLion Nazis. The Argentinians have lots of nazi heritage.
Delusions too. They’re delusional to think they have any say in the Falklands, which were British before Argentina was Argentina.
