UK: Jailed murderer pours boiling oil over another inmate because he refused to convert to Islam

Yes, yes, "there is no compulsion in religion" (Qur'an 2:256) and forced conversion is forbidden in Islamic law, but when [1] the prophet of Islam himself tells his followers to offer unbelievers conversion, subjugation, or war, the line between free choice and compulsion can get a little blurred.

"Rapist Jamaile Morally in boiling oil jail attack," by Justin Penrose for the [2] Mirror, February 7 (thanks to Paul):

A jailed killer poured boiling oil over another inmate because he refused to convert to Islam.

Jamaile Morally, 26 - sentenced to life as part of a gang that raped, tortured and murdered a teenage girl and left another for dead - led two other inmates in carrying out the attack....

A prison source said: "There has been a real problem of extremist Muslims trying to convert other inmates to Islam."

No kidding, really?
