Two teenage asylum seekers stabbed trying to help boy

The stabbing victims were pupils at Drumchapel High School
 
TWO teenage asylum seekers were stabbed while trying to help an Afghan boy who was being beaten up by a gang of hooded white youths in a suspected racial attack outside a school. Shamsedine Rebika, originally from Algeria, was still in hospital yesterday receiving treatment for a punctured lung after being stabbed in his back. The family of the second boy, understood to be Somali, who was stabbed in his leg, have asked for him not to be identified for fear of further attacks.
 
Both victims were members of a “buddies” scheme to bring together asylum seekers and Scottish pupils. The incident took place at the end of the school day as pupils were leaving Drumchapel High School in Glasgow on Thursday. It is understood that the two 17-year-olds had been boarding a bus when they saw 20 white youths wearing scarves and hooded tops attacking an Afghan schoolmate, punching and kicking him. full story
