We at the Belfast Asian Women's Academy stand in solidarity with the victim of the sexual assault. We are deeply appalled that the pressing issue of violence against girls and women is being overshadowed by the discussions surrounding the hate crime related to race.
While we acknowledge that everyone is entitled to protest, we firmly believe that violence is no means to achieving a resolution. As an organisation dedicated to fostering unity within communities, we will continue to collaborate with local groups to address these critical concerns.
