This is really shocking. A 7-year-old Pakistani boy was beaten up by five classmates on a school bus in the US for being a Muslim. The boy was badly beaten because he was a Muslim. The family of the boy has moved back to Pakistan, they are terrified of the fact what if Donald Trump comes in power, a “Donald Trump America” would be disastrous.
Seven-year-old Abdul Usmani was returning home from Weatherstone Elementary School in Cary, North Carolina. He was bullied and beaten up by five students on the bus while the boys mocked Muslims and the boy’s Pakistani heritage.
Zeeshan-ul-hassan Usmani posted a photo on Facebook with caption “Welcome to the United States of America of Donald Trump”, showing Abdul, with his left arm in a sling. Mr. Usmani said,
He is in grade 1, bullied and beaten by his own classmates in school bus for being a Muslim. These are six and seven-year old kids calling him names, with one kid punching him in the face, while two other kids attacked him, kicked him, and held his arms back,
Zeeshan-ul-hassan Usmani described his son “as American as you can get”. Mr Usmani along with his wife and their three sons have left the US for Pakistan fearing the discrimination they would face if Donald Trump comes in Power.
Mr Usmani said, “They keep beating him all the way from school to home on the bus, when he was coming home last Friday”.
The boy traumatized by the attack and has a sprained arm. Lisa Luten, a spokesperson for the Wake County Public School System, said that the principal of the school immediately began investigating the alleged incident. She said,
The principal interviewed seven students sitting near this child, and none of the students, nor the bus driver, witnessed any type of altercation or incident.
