我国学生乔诺登·莫(Jonathan Mok译音)在伦敦遭攻击事件在社交媒体上曝光后,一名15岁男子被警察以涉嫌袭击新加坡学生之罪逮捕。 伦敦警方周末(7月18日)在回应《亚洲新闻台》询问时指出,15岁少年被指控在牛津街,涉嫌与“种族暴力袭击”相关的“无意伤害或造成他人身体严重受伤”。 因被告未成年,所以并没有公布其姓名,但是他将于8月10日到海布里裁判法院(Highbury Magistrates Court)聆审。 警方补充,于3月4日被逮捕的16岁少年已经被释放,并没有对他采取进一步行动。他和被告因涉嫌此案,于3月被警方逮捕,而警方尚在追查另外两名嫌犯。 现年23岁的伦敦大学学院生,乔诺登·莫是于2月24日晚上9时15分,在伦敦牛津街因冠状病毒疫情和其肤色,被一群青少年袭击。而青少年们在警方抵达之前,就已经逃之夭夭。 乔诺登随后在脸书上公布有关事件,并附上他的受伤照片。“我感到非常生气……作为亚洲人而成为他人目标。” 伦敦警方指出,他们于当天晚上9时15分接获投报,并于3月份的新闻发布会上指出,受害者遭拳打脚踢,且脸部遭严重伤害。
