“These men came on and started making indecent racist comments. Myself and my daughter felt distressed about it so I said ‘please behave’ and that’s when it started,”
he said.”
“They were hitting me in the face, the eyes, the head. There must have been more than 200 people just in our carriage but nobody did anything or said anything. They all just stood and watched us,”
“We are big United fans and have been going to Old Trafford for 25 years and never had any trouble … But I will only ever watch Manchester United in a box now. Never again will I sit in the stands,” Prakash added sadly.
Greater Manchester Police are appealing for witnesses to identify the attackers. This incident happened after the United versus Fulham match on January 26.
