Melbourne: At least five people sustained injuries after members of alleged pro-Khalistani groups attacked a crowd carrying the national flag in Melbourne.
The incident came to light after The Australia Today tweeted a video saying, “Another video of #Khalistan goons running a mock in #Melbourne’s Federation Square Five injured one in Hospital.”
The Indians were seen running away to protect themselves from the attack while one individual threw an Indian flag on the ground.
Sarah L Gates, director of Hindu Human Rights Australasia, tweeted the video of a group of alleged pro-Khalistani supporters chasing a man who was carrying the Indian national flag.
“Khalistanis now sharing footage of a Khali mob approaching a lone Indian youth with Tiranga and assaulting them near Federation Square Khalistan Referendum. I hope @AusFedPolice will not turn a blind eye,” tweeted Gates.
The injured are undergoing treatment at hospitals while the police have arrested two accused in connection with the attack.
