EXPRESS: A MOSQUE in Worcestershire has been broken into and sprayed with graffiti, including swastikas and 'EDL', in the latest in a string of racist attacks.
Intruders broke into the mosque, which is still under construction, early this morning and used paint taken from builders' cabins on the site.
Amid fears of a backlash against the Muslim community following the Woolwich terror attack on Drummer Lee Rigby, racist graffiti was daubed over walls and at least six of the mosque's windows.
Offensive words and symbols with the initials EDL, NF, KKK and racist language were daubed across the new mosque in blue paint.
Due to an increase in "incidents happening nationally," an increased police presence has been implemented in the area.
Police have informed mosque representatives and are guarding the site, in Jinnah Road, Redditch, West Midlands. » | Charlotte Meredith | Wednesday, June 26, 2013

THE TELEGRAPH: More than 100 Romanians sought shelter in a church hall after fleeing their homes in Belfast because of racist attacks.
Around 20 families were helped by police to evacuate their homes in the Lisburn Road area of south Belfast and seek safety on Tuesday night.
Police and community leaders condemned racism in the area which culminated in an attack on a rally in support of the east European migrants on Monday night.
Youths hurled bottles and made Nazi salutes at those taking part in the anti-racism rally.
The men, women and children, including a five-day-old baby girl, first sought shelter in a house where they thought they would be safe.
But there were so many trying to cram in a local church offered them the use of the church hall.
Pastor Malcolm Morgan claimed the church had been happy to help, saying: "It is a sad indictment of our society, but hopefully we can show them a different side to Northern Ireland and a caring side to Northern Ireland."
Pastor Morgan later said he believed a "small group of racist thugs" were behind the attacks. Romanians Fleeing Racism Seek Sanctuary in Belfast Church Hall >>> | Wednesday, June 17, 2009

THE MUSLIM NEWS: The Saudi Government is encouraging Saudi students not to join the University of East Anglia after a spate of racist attacks.
The University of East Anglia’s Saudi society is trying to respond to the alleged attacks in a positive manner. They intend to write to the Saudi education minister because they feel unsafe and have lost faith in Norfolk police.
The claim was made by President of the UEA’s Islamic Society, Kaleem Ullah, who allegedly witnessed a racially motivated assault at the Norwich campus involving 12 young students.
Ullah witnessed an assault on two of his Muslim friends at approximately 10.20pm on November 30, as they walked from the Sports park to Bluebell Road.
“They were ambushed... and the sole reason for the ambush was to beat them violently, and the attack was definitely racially-motivated. One student managed to escape and call for help (he banged on my door - I live 40m from the university) and as I ran out I was racially abused, called ‘Paki’, ‘nigger’, ‘terrorist’ and was told that ‘all my lot’ would get killed. Attacks on Saudis at UK university increase >>> By Rukshana Choudhury
