'Please Save Me': Woman Who Rescued Indian Man In Dublin Says 'Attackers Could've Killed Him'
An Indian man was violently attacked and partially stripped in a suspected racist assault in Tallaght, a suburb of Dublin. The man, who arrived in Ireland just three weeks ago, was reportedly beaten by a group of individuals on Parkhill Road. He sustained serious injuries to his face, arms and legs and was taken to Tallaght University Hospital for treatment.
Revealing the details of the incident, Jennifer Murray, who found the Indian man in the road and rescued him, revealed that the ambulance took an hour to arrive. He even informed the police after she found the Indian man standing dripping in blood from head to toe, with blood 'pouring out of his head".
The woman was driving past a roundabout when she saw around 30 teenagers and five or six adults and some parked cars and lots of shouting, wrote a London-based journalist Naomi Canton in a post on X.
The woman then pulled her car over and found the man who was stabbed in the face multiple times. 'Please help me, please save me," the injured man pleaded as she moved her car towards him.
Murray informed that the teenagers standing nearby were shouting that he was a paedophile and that was why he was attacked. She said, 'It was obvious he had not done those things."
While waiting for the ambulance, the injured informed her that about 10 teenagers, aged 15 to 16, attacked him with a knife and gashed his whole forehead open. He was walking to his temple to pray when he was attacked from behind.
'They punched him in the head and pushed him to the ground. The blood did not stop pouring from his nose," Murray said, adding, 'They stripped his clothes, took his shoes, underwear, trousers, his wallet and phone. They left him on the road."
'They could have killed him," she said, revealing that he had a family in India and came to Ireland to work for Amazon. Murray added that the man is so qualified that he came to work in a field no Irish person could do and he had gone to one of the most prestigious colleges in India.
'He was so extremely polite to me the whole time. I gave him a blanket to cover himself up. He was so embarrassed and shocked," she said.
Indian Ambassador Condemns Attack
India's Ambassador to Ireland Akhilesh Mishra condemned the incident on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), questioning the severity of the injuries in what had initially been described as an 'alleged" assault.
'How can an 'ALLEGED' assault cause such horrible injury & bleeding?" he wrote, thanking the Irish police for their support to the victim and urging that the perpetrators be brought to justice.

Built empire worth billions from borrowed Rs 1500, man who sent ex Pakistan PM Imran Khan to jail is now on the run due to..., his name is...
New Delhi: Pakistan is a country that never fails to amaze, amuse, and shock, whether it is the politics of the country, sports, economy, army, or civil society. The latest news is about one of the most influential and rich builders of Pakistan, Malik Riaz Hussain, who is reported to have had access to the power corridors. Malik Riaz Hussain had been active in the country's affairs for a long time. It is alleged that it is because of him that former Prime Minister Imran Khan was jailed. Now, he is in the clutches of the law. Who is Malik Riaz Hussain, and why is he in the news? Malik Riaz Hussain, as mentioned above, is one of the most influential and rich builders of Pakistan with access to the power corridors of the country. Now, he is in the clutches of the law. His Bahria Township is considered the pride of Pakistan, but now his properties are being auctioned. Pakistan's National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has auctioned three properties of Malik to recover the lost money. The story of Malik Riaz Hussain is no less than a fairy tale. Malik was considered the most powerful and influential person in Pakistan for years. He not only had access to big leaders but also had close relations in the army and media. Due to these relations, he often escaped difficulties. But this time, it seems that luck has left him. What is the story behind the loan of 1500 rupees? Malik's story started about 40 years ago as a contractor. At that time, his family did not have enough money to treat their newborn daughter. For this, the family had to sell their silver utensils. But after that, in 1979, Malik borrowed 1500 rupees from his friend and applied for a contract in the engineering wing of the army. After this, Malik's luck shone so much that he reached the list of the richest people of Pakistan. How did he become an outlaw? Malik spent lots of money on army officers and politicians. In return, he started getting big contracts, thereby earning a lot of status and money and getting close to politicians, judges and military officers. He used to say openly that he had bribed not only politicians but also judges and ISI officers. He developed Pakistan's first gated colony, named Bahria Town. He also got huge replicas of the Eiffel Tower and the Statue of Liberty installed on the hill of the colony. When the noose started tightening in Pakistan, he fled to the UAE. What is the secret of 190 million pounds? The root of this story is linked to a big settlement deal of 190 million pounds (about 2200 crore Indian rupees). In 2019, Britain's National Crime Agency (NCA) claimed that Malik Riaz agreed to pay 190 million pounds as a settlement of the ongoing investigation in the UK. It was alleged that this money was obtained from the proceeds of crime. Later, under an agreement, it was decided that this amount would be given to the Pakistani government. How did Imran Khan end up in jail because of Riaz? The real game started from here. Allegations were made that instead of depositing this money in the government treasury, the government of the then Prime Minister Imran Khan used it to pay the fine imposed on Malik Riaz for illegal land acquisition in Karachi. Now, Al-Qadir Trust comes into the scene. Former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife were accused of taking a bribe from Malik Riaz. It was said that with the help of this money, Imran Khan took land from Malik Riaz and used it for his trust. In this case, Imran Khan was also sentenced to 14 years in January 2025.
