Glasgow gangster will stay in prison for murder of crime writer outside sex club

A Glasgow gangster has lost a bid to overturn his conviction for the murder of a Dutch crime writer outside a sex club.

Christopher Hughes was jailed for life last year and ordered to serve at least 25 years in prison before he can seek release on parole following the execution of Martin Kok in the Netherlands.

The 34-year-old was a long term part of a major crime clan involved in drugs, guns and encrypted phones and lured Kok (49) to his death before he was shot eight times in the head and body by a gunman at Laren on December 8 in 2016.
