FAMILIES of soldiers killed in Afghanistan are furious that a former Taliban fighter is seeking asylum in Scotland.The Record revealed yesterday how ex-jihad front-liner Muhammad Hanif Hanifi has settled in Glasgow and wants to stay here.
Bobby Wright, of Edinburgh - whose son Corporal Mark Wright died in Helmand province last September as he tried to rescue six comrades crippled in a mine blast - said: "I am appalled by this tale.
"If he fought for the Taliban, in my opinion he should be put up against a wall.
"Why are we letting these people into the country and why are we all paying for it?
"Mark was all we had - our only son. This is a slap in the face to all the parents who have lost someone over there."
