Vandals attack mosque in Dortmund city, defiling property with Nazi swastika, and separately, teenage girl suffers racist attack in Berlin, as anti-Muslim and racist movements gain strength in Germany
The mosque, Sultan Ahmet, is run by Turkish-Islamic Union for Religious Affairs in Germany's metropolitan city Dortmund.
"We demand that the authorities take urgent action and protect our places of worship," Turgut Ulker, head of Turkish-Islamic Union for Religious Affairs said on Wednesday, adding, similar attacks on the mosques in Dortmund city in North Rhine-Westphalia state were carried out last month as well. Dilan Sozeri, 17, was hospitalised with wounds on Saturday after she was assaulted by six people who also hurled racial slurs and threats at the teen at the Greifswalder tram stop.
After she posted a video on Instagram and provided details of the assault, police released a statement acknowledging the officers had goofed up.
