LONDON: A well-known Sikh environmentalist said he was approached by a man outside Portcullis House in Westminster who tried to rip off his turban, shouting “Muslim, go back.”
Indian national Ravneet Singh, a project manager at EcoSikh, was waiting outside the office of MP Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi to discuss plans for establishing the charity in the UK when a man came running toward him and began shaking his turban.
“He was pulling at my turban strongly. It half moved and I grabbed it. Before he could do anything else I shouted at him and he ran,” Singh told The Independent newspaper.
“He was a white man, but he didn’t sound English. He said something like ‘Muslim go back’.”
Police are investigating the incident. No arrests have yet been made.
