LONDON: Two British Indian Telugu Hindu men were assaulted during a Dussehra and Bathukamma celebration in the town of Ossett, West Yorkshire, last Saturday night in what police believe was a racially aggravated attack. The assaults happened on Oct 17 outside Ossett Town Hall, which was hosting the celebration. The event was organised by local Telugu Hindu community groups.
Earlier in the evening a group of around 25 local white youths, mostly male, were cycling around on e-bikes asking organisers what was going on in the town hall and who was inside. Some of them tried to force their way in, but security did not allow it.
