'Scent Pushed Me to Smash Makkah Grand Mosque Lamp'
Emirates 24/7 ^

Posted on 06/09/2014 11:19:52 AM PDT by nickcarraway

A 24-year-old Nigerian who used a steel bar to smash a big lamp at the Grand Mosque in Makkah said he had done so after smelling a good scent.

The man told police that he had gone to the Mosque to pray after having a heated argument with his family.

“I was at the Mosque when an old man and a woman passed by and pushed me…I got mad because of this…moments later, I smelt a good scent which made me more mad and pushed me to attack the lamps,” he said, quoted by Makkah newspaper.

It quoted police sources as saying the man would not be jailed but would be deported as part of a deal in which he agreed to drop charges against eight security men who severely beat him while arresting him at the Grand Mosque.

Was this scent his own fart? Perhaps he should investigate “lactose intolerance.”

Just count all the missed opportunities to employ lawyers and judges here.

Dummy, you’re supposed to rub the lamp, not attack it.
No wishes for you.

Perhaps he thought he smelled incense in use in the mosque. Left him, incensed, (ahem) perhaps.
