Email encouraging violence against Catholics sent to MSP
The 'Smash a Feni*n day' email was sent to SNP MSP James Dornan on Tuesday.
A threatening email promoting a day of violence against Catholics has been sent to an MSP in Glasgow.
The sectarian message titled "Smash a Feni*n day", which also encouraged attacks on Muslims and Scottish Nationalists, was sent to Cathcart MSP James Dornan on Tuesday.
The email urged "all protestants" to carry out a range of hate crimes on May 1 and claims that a point scoring system will be in place for the most extreme attacks.
It was signed off with "No surrender ever" and "f*ck the pope" above a Union Jack flag graphic.
Dornan posted the offensive email on to his Twitter page on Tuesday night asking if anyone else had received it.
The letter comes just a few weeks after a similar letter targeting Muslims was circulated throughout parts of England.
A spokesperson for Cathcart Police said: "Police have received a complaint regarding an offensive communication and enquiries are ongoing."
