09/04/02 - Get Klan bully out
of here
The Mirror
NEIGHBOURS of convicted Ku Klux Klan man Alan Beshella
said yesterday: "We don't want him back."
Beshella, 52, is due to be freed from prison later
this week after serving half his three-month sentence
for harassing an Asian family.
He is planning to return to his home in Maesteg, south
Wales, but locals want him to stay away.
A demonstration will be held in the town next week
in support of his victims - shopkeeper Mohammad Nawaz
and his family.
Jeff Hurford of the Bridgend Coalition Against Racism
said: "It's wrong a community is tainted because
it has the misfortune to have Beshella living there."
Beshella was a former Grand Dragon with the Ku Klux
Klan in America before moving to Wales.
He was jailed by Bridgend magistrates in February for
visiting Mr Nawaz's shop in Maesteg and questioning him
about the September 11 attacks. |
