Syrian Student’s Sister also Attacked by Racist Bullies in UK (+Video)

TEHRAN (Tasnim) - The sister of Syrian refugee boy who was attacked in an incident that went viral on social media was also bullied at the same British school.

New footage emerged Wednesday showing a teenage girl in a pink scarf being attacked by teenagers. She is then pushed to the ground.

Earlier this week, footage emerged showing the 14-year-old girl's 15-year-old brother being taunted, grabbed and water boarded as other students looked on.

The incident has reportedly occurred at a school in Huddersfield, northern England.

The video of the Syrian boy's alleged assault prompted widespread condemnation and an online fundraising effort had reached £124,464 (about $159,000) by Thursday morning, two days after being launched.
