A knife attack at the Park Inn hotel in Glasgow that was housing asylum seekers during lockdown was an 'avoidable tragedy', a new report has found.
The incident saw knifeman Badreddin Abdalla Adam stab six people - including a police officer, three other asylum seekers and two members of staff - at the city centre hotel on June 26, 2020. Adam, 28, was shot dead by officers following the mass stabbing.
An Asylum Inquiry Scotland review, commissioned by Refugees for Justice, said it was a consequence of people being moved from their homes into unsuitable accommodation during the Covid-19 lockdown.
