09.11.2022 - 21:49 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A man has been jailed for ten years after his neighbour was killed in a fire started by him in a Glasgow flat.
Junaid Saddique, 55, who pled guilty at Edinburgh High Court, was convicted of culpable homicide following the death of Rahul Thakur in Pollokshields on Tuesday, June 1, 2021.
Saddique set fire to his own flat on Lincluden Path which blazed out of control and claimed the life of Rahul Thakur.
Families were also left without homes after the fire caused millions of pounds of damage.
Commenting on Saddique's sentence, Detective Inspector Darren Munogee said: “Rahul Thakur died as a result of his neighbour setting fire to his own flat in what was a senseless and reckless act.
“The consequences of such actions are absolutely devastating and we hope this outcome will be of some comfort to Rahul’s family and friends. Our thoughts and condolences remain with them.”
