BBC - "Beheading video man sent to jail"
Last september, Subhaan Younis, 23, showed a incredibly disturbing video to Charlotte McClay of the Glasgow Hotel.
Apparently the whole incident was caused because of language barriers, though this is via the account of Younis. "He misunderstood that she might want to view this and she misunderstood what might be shown to her," said Dominic Sillar, Younis' lawyer.
I find it understandable that there would be some language confusion, though the real thing that throws me is that this guy had a video clip of someone being beheaded. According to the account, the exchange went something like this:
"Both had been engaged in a conversation about the Iraq War and he said he would show her something which would cause her sleepless nights and her reply was 'Aye right'." BBC UK.
Apparently the guy had no idea that this would be a malicious act, though he said he was very sorry that he made her cry.
POINT: Who the hell downloads a clip of someone being beheaded from the internet onto their phone?
