David Di Pinto was convicted of a breach of the peace aggravated by religious prejudice at the Scottish League Cup Final between Celtic and Hibs at Hampden Park.
Senior sheriffs have ruled using the word "hun" to describe Rangers supporters is a form of sectarian abuse. A man who directed the slur at two police officers argued it was a slang term in the west of Scotland for followers of the Ibrox club that had no religious connotations.

They said a "hun" was a member of a warlike nomadic people from Central Asia who invaded and ravaged Europe in the fourth and fifth centuries. "The fact that the word 'hun' is used as a derogatory term to describe supporters of Rangers FC, who are perceived to be predominantly of the Protestant faith, is, in our view, a matter of judicial knowledge.
