Two guilty of murdering Bilston pub landlord
Two men have been found guilty of killing a Black Country pub landlord, who was shot dead following a "trivial" row over a laser pen being shone towards a car.
A jury at Birmingham Crown Court took around four-and-a-half hours to unanimously convict Jasbir Singh Takhar and Sukwinder Singh Sanghera of murdering Swinder Singh Batth.
An eight-week trial heard that Mr Batth was struck by a "poorly-aimed" bullet fired by a hooded gunman at someone else outside his bar in Bilston on July 28 last year.
