Man claims Allah told him to destroy Ferrari

A Dublin businessman awoke last Wednesday morning to find that his brand new e200,000 Ferrari had been destroyed by a man claiming to have been instructed by Allah.


According to the gardai , Safet Bukoshi from Kosovo, who is in his mid-30s, began his rampage early last Wednesday morning when he set the Ferrari and a Honda Civic on fire.

Two fire brigades arrived at the scene in Clonskeagh, south Dublin, after two loud explosions were heard by local residents. Both cars were destroyed in the blasts.

As garda forensic experts examined the scene



later that morning, Bukoshi, who lives in Clonskeagh, returned with petrol cans and began to douse petrol on more vehicles, including his own wife's car. He was apprehended after the forensics team called local gardai. Bukoshi claimed Allah had told him to set the cars on fire. He was detained by gardai, who have recommended that he be charged with criminal damage at the Circuit Court.

District Superintendent Liam McCahey described it as ``a most unusual incident''.

He said Bukoshi had been remanded in custody in Clover Hill prison in Clondalkin, where he had been given a psychiatric assessment.

According to gardai,Bukoshi, who claimed he was an Albanian, has lived in Ireland for about five years. He and his Kosovar wife have four children.

``He has not come to our attention before,''said McCahey.

``He will first be charged with setting fire to the Ferrari and will then be charged separately for the Honda Civic.We will probably seek to prosecute him in the Circuit Court.''

 

The destruction of another's property is strictly forbidden, as it breaks the old 'covet thy neighbor's goods' in a way.

I hope he gets the hard side of Islamic law...to bad he won't.

 

Nice post.

 

What a shame...........................

 

Thanks.

(For the record, lighten up, the hard side is not what most of you might think...)

 

At least the judge had enough class to charge him with the Ferrari burning first. If that was in Oakland, CA, he would probably get the death penalty for torching the Honda!

 

allah told me to kick your stupid arse...sorry, but allah told me to..resitance is futile. paybacks' a *****.

 

something like that happened in my old neighborhood, guy burns up BMW and porsche, becuase he could not afford them or something.....no Allah this time
God of money was lookin for him

 

what a maniac!

 

Is it tasteless for me to jump in here and ask if anyone has any idea what the serial number might be...?

 

Well insurance is a good thing.

Sucks about that Ferrari.

 

LMAO!!No its not tasteless,but I dont have that info.

 

Any idea how i could get in touch with Susan Mitchell in Ireland or at least find out what newspaper she writes for...?

i know, i know, i'm pushing it, but it never hurts to ask...

 

I can get that info.Tomorrow am.

 

Awesome, thank you...

 

OUCH!!! That is all I can say. At least no one was hurt

 

In Oakland you would not dare touch another mans' Ferrari for fear of being shot by the owner.
