BELFAST, Northern Ireland — A 30-year-old man from Sudan is due in a Belfast court on an attempted murder charge over aMasked men set several homes they believed to house immigrants on fire, burned trash bins and a Belfast bus and pelted police with objects on Tuesday night. Firefighters rescued several people from burning homes.
“Groups of masked men burning families out of their homes is nothing less than disgusting cowardice,” she said. Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly, of the pro-British Democratic Unionist Party, said that “taking frustration at the evil actions of a person out on those who had no part in it is utterly wrong. ” Monday’s attack, caught in graphic video footage that quickly spread on social media, was seized on by anti-immigration activists.
The victim, a man in his 40s, was hospitalized with serious injuries to his eyes, face and back after he was attacked in north Belfast. Police said the suspect is a Sudanese man who entered Northern Ireland from the neighboring Republic of Ireland in 2023, applied for asylum and was given a 5-year permit to remain. The Police Service of Northern Ireland said there is no information to suggest the attack is terrorism-related and they are not seeking other suspects.
Prime Minister Starmer condemned the stabbing attack as “sickening” and said that he had “no tolerance for abhorrent scenes of violence like this on our streets. ” Protests were encouraged online by far-right activists including Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, also known as Tommy Robinson. Northern Ireland Justice Minister Naomi Long said social media agitators who “yesterday would have struggled to find Belfast on a map” were “weaponizing” the fears of local people.
“If you’re driving people from their homes based on nothing but the color of their skin, you can’t dress that up any other way, it’s racism, and those bad faith actors need to take a step back,” she told the BBC. Henry Nowak, who was white, was killed by Vickrum Digwa, a Sikh who falsely claimed to police that he was the victim of a racist assault by Nowak.
When police officers arrived, they initially treated the wounded Nowak as a suspect before noticing his injury and trying to resuscitate him. Digwa was convicted of murder for stabbing Nowak with a Sikh dagger and sentenced last week to life in prison with a minimum 21-year term. But the case has spurred heated debates about policing and race, and a protest over Nowak’s death turned violent with some attacking police with chairs and rocks. Several people were charged with violent disorder over the protest.
