DUBLIN: An Indian man was brutally attacked in a suspected racist assault in Ireland’s capital. The incident took place in Tallaght, Dublin, where a 40-year-old man was stripped naked and beaten by a group of attackers on Parkhill Road around 6 pm on Saturday, July 19.
The victim had arrived in Ireland just three weeks ago. He suffered serious injuries to his face and limbs. Eyewitnesses said the attackers, believed to be 15-year-olds, claimed the man had misbehaved with children — an allegation yet to be verified by police.
Irish National Police have launched an investigation but no arrests have been made so far. Authorities suspect the attack may be linked to a series of recent assaults on foreign nationals in the area.
Indian Ambassador to Ireland, Akhilesh Mishra, condemned the incident and urged Irish police to take swift action. Local leaders, including Seán Crowe and Paul Murphy, also condemned the attack.
