Young children have apparently been involved in the spate of racially-motivated attacks around the country.
In one instance eye witnesses report that a white teenager, Stuart Shaw, was slashed on the back with a broken bottle in a Bangladeshi district of Oldham by a gang of children, including some as young as 8 or 9. It seems that some parents are finding it hard to accept that their children are involved in the trouble. Comments Mohammed Afzal, one of the first on the scene when Mr Shaw was attacked, Many parents here know their children were involved but will not believe they had a hand in the actual attack.
According to Mr Afzal, the younger children are being led astray by older teenagers with too much time on their hands. There is nothing for them to do in the evenings, he says, and their parents just turf them out onto the streets. It seems that the police can do very little about controlling the situation because the children are so young, so it has become a catch 22 situation. To make matters worse, parental guidance is distinctly lacking. As Mr Afzal points out, All the officers can do is speak to their parents but their parents dont care.
