In two days, three attacks on Roma in Leskovac, arrested 7 people

A group of about 50 people with clubs, bars and knives attacked Roma in the Roma settlement Podvorce in Leskovac, according to locals from this settlement. According to them, the event occurred on Saturday and Sunday.

According to the witnesses at the event, the group first attacked the Roma from the neighborhood of Saat Maalo on Saturday, as it was repeated on Sunday at around 9 pm in the Podvorce and Slavko Zlatanovic settlements.

Three Roma were attacked and injured by the same group and in the center of the city in front of the Hotel "Belgrade". One of them is being held for treatment at the General Hospital in Leskovac, one of the witnesses said.

Roma representatives from Podvorce asked the police to take all necessary measures to stop these attacks, and the perpetrators were found and appropriately prosecuted.

According to the police in Leskovac, two attacks on Roma members were reported, and seven minors were detained.

The statement said the attack was reported on Sunday evening in a group of 5 young Roma who played basketball at the school playground. In the second attack, another five Roma were also attacked in front of a hotel and several people took part.

Due to suspicion of participating in these attacks, seven minors were arrested, according to a police statement.

Ireland: Joe Loughnane warns of anti-Traveller prejudice in run up to local elections

This is the view of People Before Profit Galway City Central candidate Joe Loughnane. He noted that there has been "much comment" in recent weeks about conditions in the Fana Glas estate in Ballybane and the number of Traveller caravans which have moved onto the site.

He said that councillors have failed to provide appropriate Traveller accommodation in Galway, despite funds being made available by the Government for the provision of Traveller accommodation.

"This has led to the serious shortage of appropriate Traveller accommodation in Galway, causing overcrowding in existing sites and forcing families to park their caravans by the side of the road and on sites such as in Fana Glas," said Mr Loughnane.

"Instead of attacking Traveller families who have nowhere else to go, councillors should be focusing on spending the money that is there to build new, culturally appropriate accommodation."

Italian extreme right-wingers to a Roma woman: "We want to see all hanging and burning"

Photographs published by some Italian media have shaken the public both in Italy and wider.

In the text is written that in Kazal Brusiato in Rome there were violent protests that were made to a Roma woman along with her little child. The extreme right-wingers were the leaders of this violent act, in order to evict a mother with her child from a homeless apartment that was assigned to her in which she moved in few days ago.

One of the questions posed during the protests was: "Should we wake Mussolini from the grave" to which one of the protesters replied "It will not be bad"

These protests were accompanied by bizarre curses and even a request for someone to rape the mother, then hang her and set it on fire. The police had to intervene to save the mother with the child and take her in an unknown direction.

Celebrating Roma and Traveller history month

Roma and Traveller History Month (GRTHM) celebrates the diverse ways in which the Roma, Roma and Traveller communities add to the vibrancy of life in the UK and recognises the varied contributions that these communities have made to British Society historically and today.

Since 2008, GRTHM has been celebrated throughout the UK over the month of June. GRTHM shares the history, culture and language of Traveller and Roma communities, as well as other Travelling communities including showpeople, boaters and bargees.

Through celebration, education and raising awareness GRTHM helps to tackle prejudices, challenge myths and to raise the voices of Roma and Travellers in wider society.

Schools, libraries and museums around the UK throw their support to GRTHM each year providing activities and information which support the aims of challenging stereotypes and supporting community cohesion.
