Refugees For Justice: ‘Dysfunctional asylum system to blame for stabbing’

CAMPAIGNERS in Glasgow have called for an inquiry into a stabbing attack they say happened “as a direct result of the dysfunctional UK asylum support and accommodation system.”

On Saturday, several dozen demonstrators gathered in the city’s George Square, exactly one year on from the attack, carried out by 28-year-old Badreddin Abadlla Adam from Sudan.

He was shot dead by police after the incident at the Park Inn Hotel last June, which left six people injured.
