An Indian man who had gone to shop at his local Woolworths in Moorabbin, in south-east Melbourne, was shocked to find a racist flyer on his car’s windshield on Monday evening.
The flyer claimed “Asians out, Indians out, Australia is full.”
A friend of the victim who spoke to Junkee said the victim did not want to speak to the media because he was worried about being identified and targeted again.
Jasmine, the victim’s friend told Junkee, “I was outraged.”
“I love Australia… and fortunately I have not been a victim of direct racial slurs.”
“This person [the victim] is a law abiding, tax paying, true citizen. What has skin colour to do with anything? Didn’t the Aussies come as immigrants and convicts? Bigotry is cowardice.”
Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews too came out strongly against this incident.
In a Facebook post, he said, “There's room in Australia for families of every background. But there's absolutely no room for this kind of racist crap.”
