The Tanzanian Girl Talks About The Racist Attack On Her In Bengaluru & It'll Give You Goosebumps

In her first ever statement, the Tanzanian girl who was assaulted in Bengaluru, spoke about her horrific day.

Last Sunday saw an angry mob thrash a 21-year-old Tanzanian girl, simply due to racist anger over an unrelated incident after a Sudanese man ran over a woman at the same spot.

"When I tried to save my friend, they pulled my shirt also and tore it into pieces and finally tore my shirt also"

"At the end my top had been pulled off and I had nothing to cover myself. I tried my best to cover myself with my hands and finally one good Samaritan gave me some clothes to cover myself.¡±

When she tried to escape, they grabbed her. The police ignored her. While public outcry has pushed the Bangalore police into making 5 arrests, the denial that it was a racist attack, issued by Karnataka home minister G Parameshwara, and then by Police commissioner NS Megharikh, leaves us horrified.

¡°It was Sunday I was with my friends driving around Acharya College Area. We found a mob of Indians beating someone. We discovered it was African, we reduced speed and when we approached the area one of my friends was beaten up. When I tried to save my friend, they pulled my shirt also and tore it into pieces and finally tore my shirt also.
