Muslim woman attacked in London 'for wearing hijab'

[Jungibaaz]

When they elected that wax statue again it was clear

That's nothing compared the real shift going on British politics. David Cameron got in again by using the same old, 'we inherited a mess', 'class warfare', 'Labour and the SNP' rhetoric and it worked, it made the difference between a coalition and an outright majority.

The more worrying shift is ultra right parties like UKIP managing to get 4 million votes based on NOTHING besides EU, Muslim and immigration related propaganda.

We are not human rights champions but brits are thats why i was curious :-D . Btw dont just quote shias in war of terror we had 80% sunnis died in blasts then shias.

I regret for the causic tone sir, but in UK if they have identified, justice will be served and in the background their passports must've been put on the radar so they wouldn't leave the country. You were worried as to why the bail was granted weren't you? My comment had nothing to do with WOT but the effectiveness of your institutions vis a vis that of brits when it comes to human rights protection and this case is a good example. The victim knows her tormentors have been identified, the so called tormentors have got the bail to prepare for defence or to plead guilt knowing the consequences of the choice they make.

A British Muslim woman allegedly had her hijab ripped off in a racially motivated attack in London. Police say they have arrested two people in connection with the crime.

The investigation is ongoing for the incident, which happened as a young Muslim woman was walking toward a private Islamic primary school in south London to collect her two children on Thursday. The woman says she was approached by a number of women, who began shouting abuse at her.

She was asked by the women if she felt hot wearing a headscarf. The attackers then proceeded to pull her hijab off and started to beat her near the Al-Khair school in Croydon.

"They pulled my headscarf off and started punching and kicking me,” the woman, who wished to remain anonymous, told the Evening Standard newspaper. “One was dragging my head down while the others were hitting me. They were being so racist and using derogatory terms."

She said that she suffered whiplash and clumps of her hair were missing following the attack, which was only stopped when another parent came to her aid.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: "We take any offense seriously. We have made two arrests in connection with our ongoing investigation."

The two women arrested are aged 18 and 35. They have been released on bail and ordered to return to the police station at a later date.
In May, the Muslim Council of Britain and the Church of England condemned a spike in hate crimes recorded by police in England and Wales since 2012. The majority of the hate crimes were committed against Muslims.

Racially or religiously aggravated harassment crimes – such as verbal or written racist abuse – increased from a total of 15,249 in 2012 to 17,605 in 2014.

The figures, obtained from 41 of 43 police forces approached through Freedom of Information (FoI) requests, show a total of more than 47,000 hate crimes recorded over the past three years.

Muslims have been the main victims, say anti-racism campaigners, partly due to the rise of Islamic State (formerly ISIS/ISIL), the murder of Lee Rigby by Islamic extremists in 2013 and anti-immigration rhetoric by right-wing and mainstream political parties.

Dr Shuja Shafi, secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain, described the recent spike in harassment crimes as “disturbing” but “not unexpected” before stressing the “urgent need” to combat the growth of Islamophobia across England and Wales.

“With racist bullying in schools attributed to Islamophobia on the rise according to ChildLine, job discrimination against Muslims commonplace and regular attacks against Muslims ... there is a serious concern that needs to be both acknowledged and tackled,” Shafi said.

racists attack different looking people all the time... in the west, it's sikhs, blacks, brown folks and east asian people etc who they have a go at..

shitty thing to happen to anyone but no need to make a bigger deal just because the victim happened to be a muslim this time, was probably just a bunch of drunk kids acting stupid..

the UK is still infinitely better than wherever this unfortunate person came from.

Point to be noted: Had this occurred in any Muslim country, the religion of the perpetrators would have been painted as the main culprit and the likes of liberal fascists wouldn't have left no stone unturned in their wretched criticism of Islam. But when Muslims are victimized at the hands of Kaafir's their religious identity is withheld by the liberal media.

"Kaafir"

That wouldnt happen in another country, because non muslims are almost non existent in muslim countries, "Come visit the mountains of Pakistan...and get kidnapped and beheaded. Come visit the UK, get a free house and benefits but every now and then someone might say something bad about the stupid piece of fucking cultural/religous cloth on your head that isolates you as a human being.
