'Please Save Me': Woman Who Rescued Indian Man In Dublin Says 'Attackers Could've Killed Him'
The woman informed that the man is highly qualified and had a family in India. He came to Ireland to work for Amazon. 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. view comments First Published: July 24, 2025, 08:30 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Another racist attack? Indian man brutally assaulted and left to die in Adelaide after Dublin incident
In a deeply disturbing incident, a 23-year-old Indian man, Charanpreet Singh, was brutally assaulted and left unconscious on a street in Adelaide. The alleged racist attack occurred on Saturday night near Kintore Avenue in the heart of the city, reportedly following a car parking dispute. According to 9News, Singh was verbally abused with racial slurs before being repeatedly punched and left to die by the roadside. "They just said 'f--- off, Indian', and after that they just started punching," Singh told 9News from his hospital bed. "I tried to fight back, but they beat me until I was unconscious." This incident is the latest in a disturbing pattern of racially motivated violence targeting Indian nationals abroad. Recently, an Indian IT professional in Dublin was similarly assaulted and humiliated by a gang. The young man sustained severe injuries, including brain trauma and multiple facial fractures. He was immediately rushed to hospital and remains under medical care. South Australia Police arrested a 20-year-old man from Enfield on Sunday and charged him with assault causing harm. However, the other attackers managed to flee the scene and are yet to be identified. Adelaide Police are now reviewing CCTV footage and have appealed to the public for assistance in locating the remaining assailants. Singh, who is a student in Adelaide, said the ordeal has left him deeply shaken. "Things like this, when they happen, it makes you feel like you should go back," he said. 'You can change anything in your body, but you can't change the colours.' South Australian Premier Peter Malinauskas strongly condemned the attack: "Any time we see any evidence of any racial attack, it is completely unwelcome in our state and just not consistent with where the majority of our community are at." An Indian man in his 40s was hospitalised following a brutal and racially motivated assault in Tallaght, a suburb of Dublin, late on Saturday evening. The victim, who had arrived in Ireland only three weeks prior and is reported to work for Amazon, was viciously attacked by a group of teenage males after being falsely accused of inappropriate conduct near a children's playground. The incident occurred at approximately 6 pm on Parkhill Road, where the man was subjected to severe physical violence, including having his trousers forcibly removed. Witnesses found him bleeding heavily from multiple injuries to his face, arms, and legs before rushing him to Tallaght University Hospital for emergency treatment.

Indian man assaulted, stripped and left bloodied in a possible hate crime in Ireland's Dublin
An Indian man was assaulted and stripped by a group of men in Dublin, Ireland, in what investigators suspect to be a racist attack. As per reports, the Indian man was attacked by a group on the allegations of 'inappropriate behaviour around kids.' The Indian national was assaulted by a group of men, who allegedly removed his pants before he was rescued by locals in Dublin.(Representative) The Indian national, who has not been identified, is said to be in his 40s. The police have dismissed any inappropriate behaviour on his part and the authorities are probing the incident as a possible hate crime, the Irish Times reported. The incident took place on Saturday, July 19, in the Tallaght suburb of Dublin. The Indian national was assaulted by a group of men, who allegedly removed his pants before he was rescued by locals. The man had multiple wounds and was bleeding from his face, arms and legs when he was rescued. The man was rushed to the Tallaght University Hospital with injuries and was discharged from the hospital on July 20. What did the police say about the possible racist attack on the Indian man? According to Garda (Irish National Police), the attackers falsely claimed the man was behaving inappropriately around children, which was also propagated by far-right and anti-immigrant accounts on social media. The police, however, said that those claims had no basis in reality. "Garda in Tallaght were alerted to an incident at Parkhill Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24, on the evening of Saturday, July 19, 2025, at approximately 6 PM. Garda attended the scene and a male, aged in his 40s, was taken to Tallaght University Hospital with injuries," a police spokesperson was quoted by Irish Times as saying. Some of the attackers have carried out unprovoked attacks on foreigners in the Tallaght area recently, and Garda has opened an investigation into the incident, the investigators said. Irish justice minister Jim O'Callaghan recently acknowledged instances of foreign nationals being falsely accused of crimes. "Increasingly, you hear people blaming immigrants for crimes. All I can say to you is: I have asked for the statistics, and when you look at the prison population of people convicted of offences, the percentage of immigrants in prison is lower than the percentage of immigrants in society," he said. The minister said that there was no substance to the suggestion that immigrants were more likely to commit a criminal offence. Indian Ambassador to Ireland Akhilesh Mishra was critical of the incident involving the Indian man and slammed RTE News for reporting the incident as "alleged assault". "How can an 'alleged' assault cause such horrible injury and bleeding? Aghast at the insensitivity and obfuscation of RTE News! Thank Hon @paulmurphy_TD @gardainfo and Irish people for their sympathy, support to the innocent victim. Hope the perpetrators are brought to justice!" he said in a post on X.

Indian techie, working for Amazon, brutally beaten and stripped in racist attack in Dublin; gory details emerge
An Indian man in his 40s was hospitalised following a brutal and racially motivated assault in Tallaght, a suburb of Dublin, late on Saturday evening. The victim, who had arrived in Ireland only three weeks prior and is reported to work for Amazon, was viciously attacked by a group of teenage males after being falsely accused of inappropriate conduct near a children's playground. The incident occurred at approximately 6 pm on Parkhill Road, where the man was subjected to severe physical violence, including having his trousers forcibly removed. Witnesses found him bleeding heavily from multiple injuries to his face, arms, and legs before rushing him to Tallaght University Hospital for emergency treatment. The man, who has not been named publicly, was reportedly attacked by a group of 15–16-year-olds who not only punched and kicked him but slammed his head into a lamppost three times, according to eyewitness accounts. 'He was a gentle man and he was stripped, he was attacked,' said local resident Jennifer Murray, who rushed to his aid. 'He told us what happened, that they punched him in the head first. He had about an inch and a half gash above his eyebrow, and then about an inch above his other eyebrow.' 'Then they took his head and rammed it into a lamppost three times. Then they all punched him and kicked him, and they stripped his shoes, off his trousers, off his underwear off. They took his phone and they took his money, and then they left him for dead,' she told The Journal. According to Murray, the man was bleeding heavily and appeared to be in severe shock. 'His legs were completely saturated in blood. The blood had actually congealed so much we had to cut his jacket off to check for wounds on his chest,' she added. 'This was pure racism, leading to innocent people being attacked.' The Gardaí, Ireland Police, confirmed they were alerted to the attack and have launched an investigation into the incident. A spokesperson stated, "Gardaí in Tallaght were alerted to an incident at Parkhill Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24 on the evening of Saturday, July 19, at approximately 6 pm. Gardaí attended the scene and a male, aged in his 40s, was taken to Tallaght University Hospital with injuries. Investigations are ongoing." Authorities have emphasised that the allegations of misconduct that sparked the assault are entirely unfounded. These false claims, originally spread by the attackers and subsequently amplified by far-right and anti-immigrant groups online, have been dismissed by police. Local leaders have voiced their concern over the incident, highlighting the broader issue of rising xenophobia and racist violence in Ireland. Fine Gael councillor Baby Pereppadan, after meeting the victim post-hospitalisation, described the man as deeply traumatised and called for increased Garda patrols in the area. He remarked, 'He couldn't speak much because of the shock he was in. He is not taking any visitors at the moment. Small incidents like these are happening frequently in Tallaght.' The Indian community in Ireland has expressed profound unease in the aftermath of the assault and is urging the Irish government to take urgent steps to engage with immigrant and minority groups to address safety concerns. Meanwhile, a protest organised by anti-racism and pro-migrant organisations is scheduled for July 26 to denounce such hate crimes and demand justice for the victim. The Indian Ambassador to Ireland, Akhilesh Mishra, has also condemned the attack, calling for the swift prosecution of those responsible. 'How can an ALLEGED' assault cause such horrible injury and bleeding? Aghast at the insensitivity & obfuscation of RTE [Ireland's national media outlet] Hope the perpetrators are brought to justice,' he posted on X.
