Hate crime probe after man stabbed in neck on way to mosque

[hadi123]

A man has been stabbed in the back of the neck on his way to a mosque in Altrincham, Greater Manchester.

Consultant surgeon Dr Nasser Kurdy was attacked outside the Atrincham and Hale Muslim Association at 17:50 BST and was taken to hospital.

A 54-year-old man and a 32-year-old were arrested and are being questioned by Greater Manchester Police.

The force said it was treating the incident as a hate crime and asked any witnesses to come forward.

Dr Kurdy, who has preached at the mosque as an imam, heard Islamophobic comments at the time of the attack, community sources said.

Det Insp Ben Cottam said he was attacked "in broad daylight".

He added: "We can be sure that there is no place for hate crime on our streets and we will do all that we can to take action against those who jeopardise the safety of others."

Anti Islamic feeling growing in the UK I'm afraid, with the media to a certain extent to blame.

 

[KingKhanWC]

These racist cowards only seem to attack the elderly or women.

Responsibilty lies with the media and goverment who have been demonising Muslims for their criminal agendas.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

I feel somewhat conflicted with constantly blaming the media for the xenophobic headlines. While it's true they have a massive impact, all they are really doing is selling papers. Aren't they giving people what they want?

They can sell papers by talking trash about celebs as they often do. Most of the media is Zionist, they are deliberatly demonising Muslims knowing this would lead to some nutjobs attacking vunerable people.

Although the most read newspaper is the trash rag known as the Sun, most Brits aren't stupid enough to fall for this nonsense. There was an EDL rally the other day.....5 people turned up to support it.

Responsibility lies with muslim extremists that bomb buses, run over people, set off bombs on the underground and so on. Also people that are brainwashed by muslim extremists to blame everything on the governments of western countries.

What are you joking?

Responsibility doesn't lie on one side alone. Responsibility also lies with western governments that DO have a massive influence on the current state of affairs in the Middle East which has now escalated outward and is effecting western countries.

Responsibility DOES also lie with right wing idiots who fall for any sort of hate marketing the media perpetrates.

You are an ignorant fool. Grow up.

 

[troodon]

Pathetic losers.

I had my Nikkah at this mosque a couple of weeks ago. This is quite shocking as you wouldn't expect this to happen in the Hale area.

 

[big_gamer007]

Disgusting hopefully these people would be sent to prison and rot in there for many years.

I don't think it's that simple. The right wing hate groups are generally anti-Jewish as well, why would Zionist owners of media want to open that can of worms?

I think it's more likely that the tabloids are generally read by less educated people who probably have more problems in their lives. What do these people usually want to read about? It's someone else's fault. Used to be the Jews, then it was the blacks, then it was the communists, now it's the Muslims.

No country is totally safe.

I believe a Muslim or a Hindu is a lot safer in the West than in their native countries.

I've noticed your behaviour over the last few months, all you do is blame everything that is opposite of your association. Media is not after to destroy Muslims. Media is not the blame for innocent being stabbed in middle of the day for no fault of their own.

 

[irfan]

Is no longer considered a hate/racist crime

You did get this right, papers were just giving people what they wanted, they wanted this to be a hate/racist crime.

actually the media plays a massive role in the hate campaign against Muslims in the UK. There is no denying this. Plenty of research on headlines etc has been done.

If that was the case it would have made the headlines. I can guarantee you it didn't.

That's very kind of you to read my posts, unfortunately I can't say the same.

The media has been demonising Muslims. If you change the world Muslim or Islam with Jew or Judaism in the same article, it would be seen as hate speech. Have you read the Sun, Daily Mail or Daily Express papers?

So MI5 was brainswashed by Muslim extremists when it told everyone the Iraq war will cause a backlash?

The man who was stabbed helped those who were hurt in the Manchester bombing. You go and tell him he was stabbed because of terrorists. Not surprising coming from a supporter of Israel.

 

[King-Misbah]

Shocked that this has happened in Manchester as we do tend to get on well. More shocking that it's in Altrincham; this is an affluent area.

OK so you hold the high moral ground because you supported Saddam.

 

[Syed1]

Probably a white guy did it so it's ok... Nothing to see here folks

 

[Gabbar Singh]

You don't expect this kind of thing to happen in the middle of the day in Altrincham - not that it should be happening anywhere.

All credit to the doctor who, when speaking to the media soon after, sounded in great spirits with no bitterness or anger in his voice.

Hopefully the **** who did this will be put away for a long time however given the history of UK jail sentences they'll probably just get a slap on the wrist.
