I can vouch for this as I met him once at a gathering in Manchester and the chap is a few raisins short of fruitcake. He asked us all what we thought of Hasan Butt, to which we all answered with admittedly derisory comment ( some of us using the extensive Anglo Saxon vernacular :-). He sat there and listened and then proclaimed he was his brother, you could hear a pin drop. Then he went on to chastise us for allowing free mixing in this event!!!! I blame it on the Pakistani proclivity for inbreeding. Incidentally you will be interested to know that Mr Omer Butt, is none other than the brother of HASAN BUTT!!!

I'm reminded of an incident at Uni, when a young female Pakistani Muslim research student joined a group of students and tutors in a local pub, where she had a coke. A small cotery of male Pakistani Muslims were also there - drinking alcohol. They approached her and hypocritically chastised her, asserting "pubs are no place for a Muslim women." "It's nothing to do with me being Muslim, " she retorted, "You're only saying that to me because I'm a Paki!" The said bros beat a hasty retreat. Is this about Islam?

Isn't it just as 'illegal' for him to look at any woman who isn't properly covered up?
