Dylan Shaw was today found guilty of the culpable homicide of Alexander Allan following a trial at the High Court in Glasgow. The 31-year-old fatally knifed Mr Allan in the chest at the victim's home in Ivanhoe, East Kilbride in Lanarkshire on February 7, 2023.
Jurors heard how the men had had a fight at Mr Allan's home and that the victim struck Shaw with a dumbbell. Shaw claimed he had gone there as Mr Allan had allegedly made remarks about him. The court heard Shaw warned a relative of the victim - who was also there - not to call police. Shaw later told a man he had "done something", that Mr Allan was dead, but that he had "no choice".
Shaw insisted the victim's relative, which he was said to have then threatened, was "full of s***e". In his closing speech to jurors, prosecutor Alex Sutherland stated Shaw had taken a weapon with him and that no one had "forced" him to go to see Mr Allan.
