Another accused her of "playing the race card", and said that if she "dint like it then leave". He was pronounced dead at hospital shortly after. He had multiple injuries including head wounds and a broken rib.She added: "So we really need justice. We need justice for the boy. We are praying for that."Part of the inquiry's remit is to establish exactly what happened that morning, and some of the facts are in dispute.
