Saturday, 02 October 2010 03:05
By Yusupha ChamThe husband of the Gambian woman, Fatou Saine, who was stabbed to death in the UK at a newsagent on June 1, 2010 has taken his own life behind bars.
Sheikh Saine, 43, hugged shop worker Fatou Saine before repeatedly knifing her with an eight-inch blade at McColl's in St Enoch Square,
Glasgow.He was found hanged in his cell in E Hall, the protection wing, at the city's Barlinnie prison last Tuesday.
He had been charged with murdering his wife in June this year and was on remand.
A jail source told the UK Daily record: "Saine couldn't face life behind bars. All the cons were out to get him and called him a monster for what he'd done.
"He was wracked with guilt and obviously decided to take the easy way out. He was found when the cells were opened up and the screws had to cut him down."

So let us recall back our minds that whereever we live in this mundane world, we will always and ever remain Africans !
In her service I remain
I Too would like to offer my sincere condolancies to the family and friends of both victims.The UK can be a very stressful enviroment for immigrants.Our authorities do tend to despatch their responsibilitie s without taking due account of the isolation and vulnerability of those "trading" in a foriegn land.
We must look closer at what we are doing?
Very sad.
I am really disheartened by this tragidy. God knows why it happaned specially from a very peace loving man. Sheikh is a brother and well known to me. He has been ever known to be peaceful, intellegent humble and respectful since childhood up to the date i read this nightmare. This is real work of the devil. Whatever i wish this never happen to him and pray for God's forgiveness for him
Lost of life in both ways are sad more over if attributed to a folk known for it´s peaceloving chracters.
I send my condolence to both families.
