In a case of unreasonable accommodation and kowtowing to Muslims, “a Muslim road-rage driver who sent five men flying like skittles after mowing them down in his van during Ramadan has had his prison sentence cut.”
Aslam was deemed “a quiet family man and had been fasting for 20 days at the time of the incident.” What a nice, quiet, religious family-man Luqman Aslam is:
Shocking footage of the dramatic incident shows several victims being hit by his van, with two ending up on the bonnet…..An onlooker said at the time: “It was horrific, the driver crossed over onto the opposite lane of the road before veering onto the pavement and went straight into the men”.
The abuses sanctioned (and practiced) against disbelievers in Islamic jurisprudence are at the root of the violence the world sees everywhere committed against disbelievers. Islamic supremacists and jihadists believe that there is nothing hideous enough that could be perpetrated against disbelievers, since disbelievers are the vilest of all of God’s creations (see the Qur’an, sura 98:6; cf. 8:55). Many Westerners are now rightly condemning the cruelty against animals practiced in preparing halal meat; even more disturbing is that disbelievers (and apostates) are in Islamic law deemed lower than those animals.
“Muslim road rage driver who hadn’t eaten for 20 days during Ramadan has jail sentence cut”, Express, November 20, 2017:
A MUSLIM road-rage driver who sent five men flying “like skittles” after mowing them down in his van during Ramadan has had his prison sentence cut.
Luqman Aslam, 26, was involved in an altercation with the men before deliberately ploughing into them in a busy city centre.
Shocking footage of the dramatic incident shows several victims being hit by his van, with two ending up on the bonnet.
Incredibly, nobody was killed or seriously injured in the attack which happened in Lee Street, Leicester, on the evening of June 28 last year.
An onlooker said at the time: “It was horrific, the driver crossed over onto the opposite lane of the road before veering onto the pavement and went straight into the men.
“They went flying like skittles. God only knows how anyone survived.”
He was jailed for five years and banned from driving for four-and-a-half years at Leicester Crown Court in June after admitting dangerous driving and attempting to inflict GBH.
But the father-of-one had his jail term cut to four years at London’s Appeal Court on Friday.
Judge Jeremy Carey claimed that Aslam had “used the car as a weapon.”
However, he noted that there was “substantial mitigation” and that the driver had not received sufficient credit for his guilty pleas.
It was also claimed that Aslam was a “quiet” family man and had been fasting for 20 days at the time of the incident.
The court heard how three of the pedestrians were left injured in the road rage, but none seriously.
One was flung onto the road, another struck the bonnet “full in the face” and the last “hit the dead centre of the bonnet.”……
Watcher says
If you were a driver afflicted by a medical condition that led to the running down of five people your driver’s licence would or should be suspended until you as a driver no longer suffered from the medical condition.
After this man has served his jail sentence and is eventually allowed back on to the road, I would like to see provisional conditions that suspends his licence during Ramadan since Ramadan is now considered an adverse medical condition in law. This might need suspension of all driving licences throughout Britain for Ramadan participants during Ramadan.
john spielman says
I don’t understand this issue after all muslims fast during the day but GORGE after sunset – big deal-we all fast half the 24 hour day when we sleep!
ps uni brows should be made illegal in the west!
Watcher says
Absolutely correct, it’s not really a fast, it’s just a deferred eating and drinking plan during daylight hours during Ramadan. In fact huge numbers of muslims gain weight during the supposed ‘fast’ of Ramadan, and there is a huge increase in sales of food (and presumably consumption) during this time compared to non-Ramadan parts of the year.
The express article is obviously wrong: the man had not been fasting for 20 days (unless he was completely clueless as to what a Ramadan ‘fast’ actually requires.) At worst he was on something like a 16.5 hour fast at that time of year after a few hours sleeping time the previous night as the whole day’s feasting time is taken out of that 7.5 hour night.
One thing that does increase during Ramadan is devoutness and willingness to perform jihad, and that jihad requires actions to promote islam in the world. Sura 9:29 tells the believers to fight the unbelievers until they win and the unbelievers are subdued. The statistics on muslim violence shows dramatic rises in violent incidents during Ramadan. I would say this extra religiosity has more to do with the running down of the five men, but being tired, cranky and thirsty during the long daylight hours really doesn’t help.
rubiconcrest says
As you correctly note ‘Ramadan Fasting’ is not fasting at all. Ir is merely rearranging meal times. I suggest the term ‘Ramadan Feasting’ for this more accurately describes what happens after the sun goes down, and as you correctly mention, leads to weight gain during the month Muslims practice this tradition. I suggest anytime the subject of Ramadan is brought up by the press write a comment calling it what it truly is.
Karen says
One JW writer here has. Allied it “skipping lunch”.
I wonder if the judge is aware that this nice quiet family man who clearly tried to kill several people didn’t actually fast for 20 days, but had plenty to eat each day.
Karen says
Make that: “One JW writer here has called it “skipping lunch”.
Chris Malan says
Exactly. I was in Saudi Arabia during two Ramadan’s. After sunset, they come together for the official ‘breaking of the fast.’ Time is inverted in Saudi during Ramadan with shops staying open until 02H00 or later and everyone awake during the night. I still have photos of one of the souks in Jeddah at 02H00. Before daybreak, they again come together for a huge feast in preparation for their daylight fasting hours.
And those ragheads put on a show. One day, at 11H00, a father who came to pick up his kid who had minor surgery the day before collapsed in the hospital corridor. I asked the Saudi doctor with me what was going on and he told me the man was weak from his fast. I told him that was nonsense as it was only some hours since the raghead had last eaten. The doctor grudgingly acknowledged that.
One nurse from a hospital in which I trained called it ‘the feast of Ramadan.’
Charles says
That disgusting UK judge was fully aware (a civil servant needs to learn things in order to keep his job) that Ramadan fasting is a joke and a fraud perpetrated on the dhimmis.
J D S says
Oh that’s so sweet of the London courts…….
Charles says
“A quiet family man”?????
Deport this trash!
Or keep in Prison!
But never just put these DANGEROUS JIHADIST out on the streets again. That is ludicrous!
Chris Malan says
Better still, chop off his head. He’s only likely to do it again. Society needs protection from the likes of him. It is up to the legal system to protect society.
mike9a says
All this buzz about mo fasting is simply baloney! They are to fast from sunrise to sunset and they they eat like pigs during sunset/night, there is absolutely nothing linked to fasting. One could call it intermittent fasting which most ppl do, not eating after lunch till dinner. There is nothing sacrificial with this mo fasting. Fasting actually clears the mind, with all the overeating during sunset the mo minds could not be more cloudy than they are…
Robert Crawford says
To test his defense, he should be held in a cell with no food for 20 days.
WorkingClassPost says
“.. the driver had not received sufficient credit for his guilty pleas.”
There were multiple witnesses and video footage, yet simply admitting the truth gets this guy a year off his already lenient sentence?
Seems like the judge knows only too well what islam is all about…
old white guy says
the penalty for all jihad and attempted jihad should be death.
mortimer says
Does Luqman Aslam HATE DIRTY KAFIRS ‘for the sake of Allah’? That is the question the judge should ask, not whether Luqman Aslam is ‘quiet’ or ‘a family man’. Don Corleone was ‘a family man’.
Islam and the Mafia operate on the same principle. The Mob rules over the non-mob. The non-mob can be mistreated, robbed, raped and killed, but don’t do it to the Mob.
Luqman Aslam knows the KAFIRS are never equal with Muslims. Luqman Aslam knows that RAMADAN is the MONTH OF JIHAD AND VICTORIES.
Luqman Aslam is a hero to his community for attacking DIRTY KUFAAR during the MONTH OF VICTORIES.
Dan says
It’s not like the prison is starving him.
I’d ADD a month to his sentence for every day he’s not eating.
See who blinked first.
Benedict says
Ramadan rage and Friday prayer rage converted into road rage is a smooth process. In fact two roots of Islam are resentment and hate and they are stirred up during Ramadan and Friday prayers; that’s why we never hear about a radicalized Muslim who loves his neighbor as he loves himself. A Muslim is his own neighbor and good Samaritans are unheard of in Islam.
Obscura says
The ability to procreate or for however briefly not be screaming the supremacy of his god or faith – does not excuse attempted murder!
Shmoovie says
Please, can someone clarify the line from the judge regarding this defendant having not received “sufficient credit for his guilty pleas”?
Am I misunderstanding the legal terms?
Cannot fathom why a person –‘quiet family man’ or non– who has admitted attempts to inflict GBH should receive any amount or type of ‘credit’ from the court.
As well, the attorneys and the press reporting on this have no excuse for misleading the public on this ‘fasting’ business. The smallest bit of research done and down the drain goes the driving while ‘starving’ crap! So blatantly dishonest…
IanB says
Under the laws of England and Wales a defendant who pleads guilty will receive a shorter sentence than had they pleaded not guilty with a resultant full trial. Otherwise we do not have plea bargaining as practiced in the USA.
WorkingClassPost says
If the judge is suggesting that this we should not expect more from ‘quiet family’ muslims, every time they miss lunch, then the future looks very bleak for us all.
eduardo odraude says
Gee, 4 years for attempted mass murder.
Ramadan is such a special time for Muslims:

What an outstanding video by Dave… HATS OFF!! DEEPEST RESPECTS!!! Thanks for posting this Eduardo… I just loved as when he says that most of the left are closet white supremacists…with their patronizing attitudes.. And in India too, we have the leftist elite Hindus behave in the same way towards Muslims..
John Forbes says
HOW DARE YOU POINT OUT THAT ISLAM IS NUMBER ONE TERROR RELIGION!
YOU WILL BE NAMED AS THE NUMBER ONE ISLAMOPHOBE & PEOPLE LIKE MUSLIM JUSTIN IN CANADA WHO HAS PUBLICALLY STATED THAT MUSLIMS ARE VICTIMS & ARE BEING CONTINUALLY HARASSED! EVEN THE MUSH TAINTED RCMP CANNOT BACK THAT ONE UP !!
THE LEFT & LABOR ARE STILL STICKING WITH THE MUSLIM VICTIM STORY & ALSO TNE MENTAL ILLNESS CONNECTION FOR THEM IS A MUST!
THE WEST CANNOT GET THEIR HEAD AROUND THE FACT THAT THE FOLLOWERS OF THIS GENTLE ISLAM FEEL THAT THEY ARE SUPERIOR TO ALL OTHERS & HATE ANYONE WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE WHAT THEY BELIEVE & WANT TO KILL ALL APOSTATES & NON BELIEVERS!
IT STILL LOOKS LIKE THE COWARDS IN THE WEST ARE STICKING WITH MODERATE MUSLIMS & NOT BOTHERING TO EXAMINE THE TEACHINGS OF THIS GENTLE PEACEFUL IDEOLOGY!
THEN WE HAVE THE NEW CONVERTS LIKE MYRIAM FRANCOIS CERRA, YVONNE RIDLEY & Lauren bOOTH – WHO ALL CLAIM THAT ISLAM IS A BETTER GUIDE TO LIFE THAN CHRISTIANITY!
WHILE I PERSONALLY HAVE NO ISSUE WITH THEM BEING MUSLIMS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THAT HAVE MARRIED MUSLIMS i DO HAVE AN ISSUE WHEN THEY DELIBERATELY RUN DOWN CHRISTIANITY!
Rob says
He wasn’t even “fasting”. He was just deferring his emails until evening. It’s not like Jews fasting 24 hours for Yom Kippur
ac says
It was only a joke decades ago, now much more real:

abad says
Who cares that he was “fasting” the human body was not designed to go for 30 days without food or water.
One other thing.
In normal human bodies the brain is ~78% water, it is stupid to deny water to the body in the name of some bizarre pagan Arab moon deity ritual.
Whoopsie I forgot, Islam is vehemently anti-science and anti-fact.
Deport Aslam all the way back to Syria.
Carolyne says
A human body cannot go 30 days without water. Three to seven is the norm, usually less than seven. During Ramadan, these idiots don’t eat or drink during the day, but gorge themselves after dark with food and drink.
Kind of like not eating red meat on Fridays, but gorging on fish.
Sarah says
My ass that he didn’t eat for 20 days during Ramadan.
A Muslim’s take on fasting is to get up really early so they can stuff their faces before dawn breaks, then drink water all day, then stuff their faces absolutely ridiculously so, each night.
Statistically speaking, I’ve read reports of Muslims stacking on fat, having spikes in bad cholesterol and higher blood pressure readings during and after Ramadan. They pig themselves silly Just no while the sun is out.
ac says
> then drink water all day
It’s not allowed to drink even water during the day for the Muslims during Ramadan. They can still drink and eat whatever they want during night.
But the water limitation is problematic for the human body when the days are long, it’s hot and one has to be active. It’s easier if one doesn’t move much.
Infidel says
I have heard that in Pakistan, Muslims often rush out of their mosques after Friday Jummah with swords. knives, and guns and threaten people at random and many times even fight and injure and kill. They fire guns at random and many random victims get caught in the crossfire… What kind of animals these are!!
Cicero says
The infamous Day of Action in India in the 40.s was on a Friday afternoon when the followers of the religion of peace rushed out of their several mosques simultaneously all over Bengal killing Hindus and hacking to death the Unbelievers.
They showed by the actions that Muslims could not live peacefully alongside their Hindu counterparts and forebears. They were awarded , for their actions the state of East Pakistan, “ We are made victorious with terror!”
Today the Hindu and Buddhist population in the Islamic state that is Bangladesh is falling below 5%. In 1971 at the time of Bangladesh independence from Pakistan the Hindu and Buddhists comprised 30% of Bangladesh population.
N Ow the poor Hindus remaining in Bangladesh fear for their future . As they say “ there is no future for non Muslim communities in Bangladesh. Either we flee or, if we remain we have to convert to Islam”
LeftisruiningCanada says
“It was also claimed that Aslam was a “quiet” family man and had been fasting for 20 days at the time of the incident.”
This has already been commented on quite a bit, but it i can’t help joining in.
In hot places not drinking during the day is actually a bit of a chore, but in the UK it’s pretty much possible to survive simply taking in moisture by osmosis, the air is that humid.
Maybe this guy was ‘fasting’ from cigarettes or weed during the day and it was enough to bring out his inner mujahid? Though if you dedicate yourself to a demon for long enough there’s every chance he’ll use you for his own ends at some point.
Islam is such a filthy con. It even makes people believe ‘skipping lunch’ is fasting and makes you holy or whatever.
MFritz says
Such special treatment only applies to special minorities. Had this been a white “suppremacist” they would most likely increase his jail time because of an “obvious obstruction attempt”.
Expat88 says
They gorge all night during Ramadan. Just because the victims weren’t killed shouldn’t factor into the penalty for his attack. There is nothing to stop him from doing the same thing again in the future.
MFritz says
In the US they would have laughed at this request. Attempted murder or conspiracy to murder weighs more far heavy over there.
Anne Smith says
What hope for the judges to decry the nonsense of Ramadan “fasting” when our own Prime Minister makes videos as stupid and ill informed as this one she sent to all Muslims “worldwide” not just in UK!!
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/ramadan-2017-prime-ministers-message
The message is clear – these are her chosen people and woe betide any native Brit who upsets them.
Guy Macher says
Ramadam-a-ding-dong is a month-long, all-night pig-out and rape-fest. No Muslim barrow can be expected to stint himself food or sex for longer than 12 hours!
Jay says
While we’re on this topic, why not let all rabid dogs run wild in the streets and encourage them to bite people freely.
David says
Muslims are always running down Infidels!
Linda Rivera says
British leaders, politicians, courts and judges are rabidly pro-Islam, anti-white Briton haters, pro-criminal and anti-victim.
Of course, they cut his sentence. He’ll be out very soon. He and his family will continue to be rewarded with full welfare benefits.
The Son of the Devil will not be deported by UK authorities because if the monster was deported he would not be able to carry out any more terror attacks on intensely hated white non-Muslims.
martin says
“had been fasting for 20 days at the time of the incident”
BULLCRAP – Muslims merely swtich from eating in the daytime to eating at night.
During ramadamned muslim obesity rate increases, they eat more food than normal and more expensive food than normal.
It is in fact a food orgy.
bouboulina says
And there he is, this mutant excuse for a human being with his criminal facial features (I’d never select someone such as he for a jury–3/4 eye whites, unibrow, slack jaw, dull expression)–out on the streets to commit even more mayhem, emboldened by the laxity & insane leftist mentality of a cratering western judiciary. Look out, he’s out there free & roaming in pursuit of even greater harm to more “infidels”. Additionally, given the description of how the victims were hit by the perp’s truck, I don’t see how some sort of serious injury was not inflicted on them, let alone the psychological trauma. It’s a wonder they weren’t prosecuted for having had the supposed verbal exchange that set him off.
