LONDON: A Sikh teenager's hair was forcibly hacked off by a gang of white youths in a suburb of the Scottish capital Edinburgh, in one of the most high-profile and vicious racist attacks in the country.

Sources close to the Scottish Executive, the devolved government, told TOI on Thursday, 48 hours after the attack that "we are very concerned but it is right that the police should investigate the incident".

The attack is understood to have occurred on Tuesday night, when a gang of white teenagers pinned the Sikh boy to the ground, ripped off his turban and proceeded to cut off his hair in a public park in the Edinburgh suburb of Leith.

Cutting the hair
forcibly of a young
15 year old boy
a Sikh
shows Scottish lionhearted
Church western upbringing
racial assaulting
profiling
so to speak ..
blessed are those
who mug the multi colored meek
Biblical blasphemy
myopic malcontent
malaise
of a god who is white
also slaps the black cheek
religious symbols
that the west browbeats
the hijab the turban the chequered scarf
something that hits them hard
on the face of their economic defeats
hypocritical double standard and cold feet..

I d rather live in India than get my ass
kicked in western world I repeat…
I d rather die a free and proud man in India than
live as an alien mugged for life in demonic
self respect damaging Scottish retreat..
fuck your dollar pounds deutch mark
I am happy with a Gandhi on my Indian rupee

an american muse the inspirational heart of my poetry
