The Sikh kid tried to walk away after the first attack where they took his turban off and he was attacked again and beaten to the floor.

Here is the uncut version

Yes it seems very cowardly and race motivated attack of 2 senior students on a junior. 2 against 1 is shameful enough. Hopefully they can sort it out and shake hands and be friends. Hate is not worth it.

If he was white bbc wouldn’t even report it

It’s only a couple kids larking about, forget it.

This woudent of happen if they had stayed in there on country and now they complain

I hope the lads ok and the twat gets he’s comeuppance. Unbelievable!

The parents of those scum, loser kids should receive a visit from social services and have them taken away. If their loser parents can't be bothered teaching them right from wrong, maybe a detention centre will help. The state needs to be strict and severe with scum like that.

These comments, though...

Tuhānū guḍāgaradī suṇō - Sikh’s are brilliant They fought for us in the first and Second World War in Malaya, Burma and Italy They are our brothers and should be treated with respect ✊🏻 God bless them !

👇

Absolutely atrocious behaviour! All those involved should be expelled - they think this is normal behaviour!! I hope the school are going to take immediate action!

Punishments don't fit the crime in this country CPS, and courtroom don't back the police enough metpoliceuk

The UK is more racist than the USA.

sukhjotesingh boy being attacked & laughed at is a Sikh . raw video clip shows the bullys were two kids who attacked 2-3 times. UK Sikhs do not go around bombing & killing innocents whilst shouting Gods name. Yet as well as bullying, we have to put up with mis-labelling as Isis terrorists

Dirty little bastards.

Put the parents on trial too

Because white’s never get attacked or bullied...

Kid get thumped at school; like this is the only case; not. Its only a hate crime because they were a Sikh; and suits the BBC agenda. School spoke to parents & resolved issue to their satisfaction; job done. Police possibly called so doing what they do. BBC crime maybe only crime

Jesus, were are truly stuffed when every fight between school kids is posted on BBC!

White peoples r born racist

Kids pretty much hate eveything at that age!

Of course just because he's a Sikh doesn't mean it wasn't his own fault!

Actually the Khatri caste Sikhs (Surname Example:- Khanna) have the closest trajectory to the Saxons among any Indian race along with Marwari Singhs and fair-skinned Sindhis! These are all “matherchud” races that fight to impress us... These 4 at the top!

I also witness a fight between some white guys and a group of Muslim guys It's wasn't even the white guy's fault the Muslim guy's started up the fights and was telling them nothing will happen to us as we will call racists and the police won't do anything to us vile mentality 💁‍♀️

Bigger kid is white - must be full of hatred for the Sikh religion.

Funny how this gets more coverage than the school children and teacher attacked by a 35 year old man with a metal pole in Streatham. A 13 year old child is fighting for his life but look!.. School Fight!

Scum. Send them to centre court. I will deal with them.

The world's full of racism. always was, always will be...

If you are going to attack someone make damn sure they are the same race and religion you are? Is that the message

Good, fights in schools should be dealt by the police instead of being blown over by schools.

Are there any links between these attacks and xenophobia/Brexit?

Funny how you never get hate crimes against white people!

Some kids fighting some kids gotta big blurry head get over it ,,,,,,down with the blurry head kids

Bullying can be a nightmare, he hopefully tried to get at least one good punch in though. Bullies don't like getting hurt back even if you get flatten, they'll think twice next time. In my experience.

“Hate crime” ....as opposed to all of the friendly attacks?

Nothing worse than bullies, hope it gets sorted.

THE MARXIST BBC STILL DRIVING WEDGES BETWEEN DIFFERENT ETHNIC COMMUNITIES. I WONDER IF THIS STORY WOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN UP IN THIS BOY HAD BEEN A WHITE HUNGARIAN OF COURSE IT WOULDN'T!

I'll never understand why they block their faces out, let's see who these brave kids are and publicly shame them. Their parents must be very proud of their children

Well partially thanks to the media for constantly stirring racial issues online. This is the result. Hate crime! It is just so awful to see such news. Hope the boy who was attacked is OK.

You don't get bad children just bad parents

That is TERRIBLE!

Police will do their Job, Trust we all have as Citizens.

If the cops wanna catch 'Hate Criminals' they should start be reading the comments and replies on this article, seems to be plenty of hate here.

And this is where the supposedly stretched and underfunded police service dedicate their resources?

Before where there was no Twitter, this was only kids argument and most likely they will be playing together shortly afterword. Thanks to social-media it is now a hashtag and subsequently a hate crime.

For the radical Liberals likings, every fight is start with, racists, conspiracy theorists, white supremacists and end up calling it hate crimes!

Another example of why multiculturalism will never work.

The question has to be where did their racist views come from? Home?(parents) larger family views? school? I hope all involved learn life long lessons from this thugish attack.

Couple of kids smacking the 7 bells out of each other has now become a hate crime. Unbelievable.

(1.0) At the very least it’s a CRIME. As a parent I’d want swift severe action.That said I think a student under 18 is a minor/child & as such doesn’t deserve to be stigmatised or held back in adult life by’A’ crime* committed as a youth I think records should be expunged upon..

Thats why the prison was not made for dogs most of them hear this and see this evil from their parents at home but again this country promotes evil doings because they have taken God from every thing.

And the global bigotry continues.

Was orchestrated attack on cliff Richard a hate crime ? Or simple distraction from what's really going on ? Who gave saville contracts ? Keys ? Someone knew !

As long as the punishment of such acts is not adjusted, this will happen much more

It unfortunately happens on all sides. The BBC only seem to report one way which isn't helping. It's making things worse.

What are we becoming we seem full of hate we all need to watch out for one another lets be kind to everyone and get through this horrid time

It’s the parent’s responsibility to install respect. EVERYTHING starts at home

Based on what? Skin colour? Is every school fight a hate crime?

How can an emotion like hate be objectively treated in a case?

Was it a Jewish child?

There's nothing in the article to suggest why it was a 'hate crime' -- crap reporting as usual.

Britain 🇬🇧, the Terrorist Nigeria 🇳🇬 contraption you created and handed over to FULANI Terrorist is Killing and has Killed more Innocent Nigerians and Biafran Christian and Jews MORE THAN COVID-19. END Nigeria 🇳🇬 Now before it’s too Late, how EVIL can British people be!!
