LONDON: Several Indian-origin people were among those attacked during the riots in London and elsewhere, but it is a matter of satisfaction for the community that so far none of the over 1,000 rioters arrested is of Asian origin.
Among those hit hard are jewellers and shopkeepers with origins in Gujarat and Sri Lanka, while the three youngsters deliberately mowed down by a speeding car in Birmingham on Wednesday morning were of Pakistan origin.
However, almost all of those arrested and currently being fast-tracked through magistrate courts in London and elsewhere are youngsters belonging to the Afro-Caribbean and white communities.
