Two people have been arrested after a pig's head was thrown onto the roof of a mosque
Mosque attendees felt intimidated after seeing the pig's head on show. Picture: HCMT.Two men have been arrested for hate crime offences after a pig’s head was placed on the roof of a mosque and community centre in Stockport.
It had been placed on a low, flat part of the roof, meaning it was clearly on show. Greater Manchester Police carried out three raids this morning, and two men, aged 22 and 47, were arrested and remain in custody for questioning. "It was placed on a low pitched roof of the building which was visible as soon you enter the road. I think they have picked that point to terrify people."Detective Inspector Gareth Beasley of GMP's Stockport division said: “Hate crimes are abhorrent and have no place in civil society.
“Hate crime can take many different forms - violence, offensive letters, damage to your property etc, but none of it is acceptable.'Spineless' killer jailed for life for murdering Zara Aleena with 'a savagery that is almost impossible to believe'
