Vaheguru ji ka khalsa vaheguru ji ki fateh

Two men young Sikh builders in Coventry had been building a wall in the Walsgrave area when they where set upon by two white youths he approached them shouting racist abuse, one of the racists punched one the Sikh guys and a scuffle started which resulted in one of the white youths being knocked to the ground. Close to where he fell was a hammer, taking the opportunity, he picked up the hammer and attacked one the Sikh guys, first striking his hand followed by a blow to the back of the skull which left him unconscious. This is a warning to all the community to beaware as people’s attitudes are changing, and in times of recession racism usually goes on the increase.

The Poor guy phoned me two days ago and the police still hadn't arrested the guys, even though there are three independent witnesses, cctv footage and one of the attackers dropped his keys at the scene with the fob to his flat, we contacted Coventry Evening telegraph who are writing an article to be released today and he had a meeting with the police yesterday and we have another today to see why nothing has been done.

Coventry builder in racist hammer attack

Apr 9 2009 by Emma Stone, Coventry Telegraph

A COVENTRY builder is lucky to be alive after a thug fractured his skull with a lump hammer during an unprovoked racist attack.

Ranbir Hayer has been told by doctors he could have been paralysed by the savage assault.

It happened while he was building a wall in the front garden of a home in Walsgrave.

The bricklayer was struck on the back of his head, dangerously close to his spine. He has been left with continuous headaches and was unable to feed himself in the days following the incident.

The 26-year-old married man was working in Hall Lane with a colleague when two men walked by and shouted racist abuse.

Moments later they returned and launched a sickening attack on the pair.

During the attack, one of the men grabbed the lump hammer Mr Hayer had been using and smashed it in to Mr Hayer’s skull.

The assault happened at 5.30pm on March 30. The attackers fled and their victim was rushed to University Hospital, Walsgrave.

He has undergone scans and x-rays and the wound on the back of his head was glued shut.

Mr Hayer’s colleague was was beaten by the other attacker and was treated by paramedics at the scene.

Mr Hayer said: “When you go out to work you don’t expect someone is going to hit you with a lump hammer.

“I’m having continuous headaches and for the first few days I couldn’t sleep.”

The self-employed bricklayer has been unable to work since the attack.

His wife of three-and-a-half years has been caring for her husband since the attack.

She said: “I received a phonecall from his colleague who said he had been injured and that he had been taken to hospital.

“I was told what had happened when I got there - I was in a right state, I didn’t know what was going on.

“It only just missed his spine. These people are sick-minded, it’s disgusting.”

Detective Inspector Nigel Harrison, of Stoney Stanton Road police station, said: “We are actively investigating the matter and we have linked up with members of the Sikh community.

“We are appealing for witnesses to come forward. Fortunately, incidents of this type are extremely rare.”

Anyone with information is urged to call the police on 0845 113 5000. Information can also be passed to the police in confidence, via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Chances are the racist white youths will get away with a soft sentance if the police do manage to get them. In tough times like these days it is best to get aggressive and hit any aggressor harder than they would hit you, send a signel you touch an innocent sikh in that manor your likely final resting place will be in a coffin.

when we went to see ranbir yesterday when the press was there, he could hardly move his neck because of the fracture swelling the back of his neck. if the hammer hit was made a inch more of a impact, he would have been paralyzed and possible not alive. Gurus kirpa.
