For the avoidance of doubt, I am just interested in the veracity of the original story. Others have, perhaps understandably, high-jacked the subject to raise wider Islamic issues



Not doubting it, I just require hard facts of the whole story.
Given that this story has the potential to be quite inflammatory, I don't think a full appraisal of the facts is too much to ask for.
You have just about all the information I can provide, I'm afraid. The only hard facts I have to offer is my telling of the tale. Unless the story makes the papers, which is unlikely given it's Harrow, you'll just have to take my word for it... or not. Or, of course, you could telephone the school and ask how Oscar the labrador is getting along at home.
it really is incredible...hundreds are being murdered every day and he thinks this might ruin reputations.
