Owner of remote Scottish island says he WON'T sell it to hate cleric with his own 'army' after he raises £3m in bid to create Islamic homeland at remote beauty spot
The owner of Torsa, a remote Scottish island, refuses to sell it to Sheikh Yasser al-Habib, who aims to create an Islamic homeland there. Al-Habib's plans, which include building a school, hospital, and mosque, have faced strong local opposition. The cleric, known for his controversial views and hate-filled broadcasts on Fadak TV, has been fundraising to buy the island. Local officials and residents express concerns about the feasibility and appropriateness of his plans, urging authorities to monitor such proposals.
