Scottish man shot just hours before he was due to wed on Philippines island
A Scottish man.has been critically wounded after being shot and mugged just hours before he was due to wed his fiancée in the Philippines.
Tarek Naggar, 44, from Milngavie, East Dunbartonshire, was reportedly fired at in the early hours of Thursday, 20 July by a gang of men on a motor scooter who made off with his wallet as he was having a drink with partner Angie.
The couple met in Sweden, where Tarek is currently living, and were planning to relocate to Thailand where fiancée Angie had secured a job teaching English, the Sunday Herald reports.
Tarek's best man Chris McLaughlin, from Bearsden, is understood to have been with the couple at the time of the incident and claims two of the men on the scooter demanded Tarek's wallet before pulling out a pistol and blasting him in the chest.
He is now being treated at a local hospital but the extent of his injuries has not been revealed.

Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
