A heavily pregnant Muslim woman wearing a veil has been attacked in front of her children in Barcelona in an apparent hate crime.

Investigators said the woman was walking in the Spanish city’s central Old Town area with her husband and children on Monday evening when two men approached.

They started shouting insults over the woman’s niqab – a veil covering the face apart from the eyes - Barcelona police said.

When her husband reproached them for the offensive comments, the two men started pushing him and then launched a physical attack.

“The woman tried to intervene between the aggressors and her partner,” a police spokesperson said. “At that moment, one of the attackers kicked the pregnant woman’s abdomen.”

Passers-by who had seen the altercation jumped in to protect her and waited with the woman, her husband and their two children until police arrived.

The mother-to-be was treated by paramedics and taken to hospital for gynaecological examinations, which found no permanent injury to the woman or her unborn child.

Two men have been arrested on suspicion of hate crime, discrimination and causing bodily harm.

Using pellets in Kashmir is sensible: V K Singh

Minister of State for External Affairs V K Singh, also a former chief, on Saturday described pellet firing as non-lethal and said it was a "sensible and well-thought" decision by the Union Home Ministry to use the weapon for controlling protesting mobs in the Valley.

"Pellet firing is non-lethal. The Home Minister's (Rajnath Singh) decision was sensible and well-thought. People who come close to firing get injuries," the minister said on the sidelines of a seminar organised by the Federation of Association of Small Industries of India.

However, pellet firings have caused at least six deaths including one on Saturday when security forces fired at a protesting mob in a south village. Hundreds of civilians, including minors, have lost their eyesight partially or fully after they were hit by in the restive valley.

This is what it is like to be a Muslim parent in a post-9/11 world

Recently a friend told me how bad she felt bad for shushing her children in public for saying 'Allahu Akabar' as they cheered her for agreeing to buy them a treat in the supermarket

And we fear of our children being wrongly referred to a local anti-radicalisation programme via the police, simply for asking for a prayer space at school or requesting time off to partake in religious ceremonies.

Authorities: Woman attacks 2 Muslim women pushing strollers


NEW YORK (AP) — Authorities say a New York City woman attacked two Muslim women who were pushing their young children in strollers and tried to rip off one woman's hijab.

Court documents say Emirjeta Xhelili approached the women near her Brooklyn home Thursday afternoon, punching one of them in the head as she screamed obscenities and told her to leave America.

Authorities say Xhelili pushed the woman's stroller toward the ground and later tried to grab the second woman's stroller away from her.

Xhelili faces charges including assault, menacing and endangering the welfare of a child. The Brooklyn District Attorney's Office has described the incident as a hate crime.

Xhelili is being held on $50,000 bond or $25,000 cash bail. Her lawyer tells the New York Daily News Xhelili has no previous arrests.

13SEP2016: Kashmir

tribune.com.pk/story/1181625/curfew-imposed-indian-kashmi...

Indian-controlled Kashmir will impose a curfew during the Eid festival starting from Tuesday and will use drones and choppers for air surveillance to limit any violence in the strife-torn state.

Seventy-six protesters have been killed and more than 7,000 wounded in clashes since July in the worst violence in six years in the disputed territory. Two police officers and more than 5,000 security personnel have been wounded.

Muslim women loses her baby as she is kicked in torso by racist attacker in Milton Keynes, UK

Earlier today Thames Valley Police, UK, arrested a man in connection to a racist attack that took place in August when a Muslim woman lost her baby. The man directed racial abuse at the 34-year-old woman at a Co-op store in Bletchley, Milton Keynes, followed her to her car then kicked her in the torso. The woman was taken to Milton Keynes General Hospital but they were unable to save her baby.

The same man also hit a 40-year-old man over the head with a bag of ice and a bottle.

The news comes at around the same time a 36-year-old Muslim woman was set fire to on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, New York, and two Muslim women in Brooklyn were assaulted as they pushed their babies in prams. Emirjeta Xhelili, who was arrested and charged for second attack, tried to remove one of the women’s headscarves and pushed one of the prams to the ground.

At the beginning of September a 60-year-old Muslim woman was stabbed to death in the Jamaica Hills area of Queens, New York City.

A Muslim woman who was gang raped in India has said her attackers asked her whether she ate beef in what some suspect was another crime by Hindu vigilante groups.

The 20-year-old and her 14-year-old cousin were attacked by a group of men who trespassed into their home in Mewat, Haryana, and murdered their uncle and aunt before sexually assaulting the female victims two weeks ago.

Local police originally arrested four men for trespass and sexual assault, but after protests from the local community the men were charged with murder.

Now the older victim has said the men asked the victims whether they ate beef before insisting they did and proceeding to attack them.

She told NDTV: “They asked if we eat beef. We said we don't, but they insisted we did.

it would have to be a legal team...most existing organizations collect information for government documentation, give advice, offer counselling, report to the police and offer suitable support where required.

on a legal level where courts would be involved and where it would matter, it would have to be a legal team qualified in this area. taking into consideration there are so many loopholes in the law. not impossible though.

I agree with last two posts. If we want to be able to help and do anything about the issues we face its vital we have a civil right movement and lawyers on board. Also sympathetic MPs to argue our case. Some issues i noticed is that majority of the people refuse to accept the term islamaphobia and making the silly statements islam is not a race so you cant be a racist if you vilify islam and muslims.

We need to make islamaphobia on the same level as anti semitism. Any small thing u say abt jews gets you in trouble wereas islam its fair game.

Bbc1 had a documentary not so long ago which showed sick islamaphobic abuse online. Such comments are to disgusting for me to repeat on here but yet when a muslim police detective looked at all the abuse they all fell within the legal boundries. Even threats like lets bomb mosques was not considered a crime.

We could really do with a Malcolm X like figure right now. Listen to his speeches they are soo relevent even today
