A Sikh man was brutally beatenup in the British city of Birmingham and police have launched an investigation after the sickening video of the assault emerged on the internet.
The footage, believed to have been captured on a mobile phone, shows the victim desperately trying to cover his face, as a man punches and kicks him during the brutal attack on Sunday in Broad Street, Birmingham. A crowd is gathered around the man, but no one tries to help him, Birmingham Mail reported.
A spokesperson for West Midlands Police said: “We are aware of a video posted on the internet which appears to show a man being assaulted on Broad Street in Birmingham on 29 March.
“It has been suggested the attack was religiously motivated. We would like to reassure people we take such reports extremely seriously and the matter will be fully investigated.
“We are currently making inquiries to establish exactly what has happened but at this stage, nobody has come forward to tell us they’ve been assaulted.
“I would encourage the man who appears to be the victim in the video to contact us, along with anyone else who was there at the time and can give us any further details.”
