Pregnant Pakistani woman targeted by Belfast racists

A pregnant Pakistani woman and her brother-in-law have become the latest targets of a hate campaign by racists in south Belfast.

The pair had just retired for bed last night when a six-foot wooden plank was thrown through the front window of their house in the Donegall Road.

Both occupants were badly shaken by the incident, the latest in a spate of racist attacks in loyalist areas of south Belfast.

Last month, a Chinese and a Ugandan family fled their homes in the Village district when they came under attack on the same night.
