Made you look! Now that would be news.

Here's a BBC article via Robert Spencer:

A man was shot five times in the head at close range in an "execution" plotted by a group who had failed to convert him to Islam, a jury has heard.

Adrian Marriot's murder was a "swift and brutal response" to him falling out with the group, the Old Bailey heard....

Mr Marriot had known Mr Archer for several years before he and Mr Stubbs began visiting the house he shared with Tara, David and their mother, Ruth, Mr Kinch added.

"They said they were interested in getting converts to Islam and among their targets for conversion were Adrian Marriot himself, his sister Tara and her friend Jade Okai....

"There may have been some element of pressure brought to bear by the two men but in due course both Tara Marriot and her friend Jade Okai agreed to take the Shahadah, a declaration of faith."

The two women had then been given hijabs, or headscarves, Mr Kinch told the jury.

And Mr Stubbs and Mr Irving-Simpson had brought round DVDs, Islamic books and copies of the Koran.
