Couple to leave Antrim home after racist attacks

Monday, 29 December 2008

A couple say they plan to leave their home in Ballyclare, Co Antrim, after a series of racist incidents culminating in an arson attack on Saturday.

Graeme Bowler and his Indian-born wife Ajita only moved into the house two weeks ago.

Since then, they have been subjected to a series of racist attacks.

On Saturday, breeze blocks and wooden poles were used to smash their windows before a petrol bomb was thrown into the house.

The couple say they are unhappy that it took the police 90 minutes to come to their aid.

Columnist Comments

• Gritty, moving and heroic...Billy plays captured life here

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times ... Sunday's 30th anniversary screening of the seminal Too Late to Talk to Billy was riveting viewing. But it wasn't nostalgic viewing.

• Parties need better defence in Stormont's game of two halves

Surprise, surprise. Peter Robinson has been to his first gaelic match, Martin McGuinness is heading for Windsor Park and the Ulster Unionists have scored another own goal.

• Why trying to go on a diet is never really a piece of cake

Some people make New Year’s resolutions, I make lists. Every new year I determine to keep track of everything I spend and everything I eat and drink.

• Scary movie? Their jaws were sore from laughing

Teenage boys love horror films and I have two who are in charge of the remote control in our house, so naturally there’s gore-a-plenty on the box most weekends. However, until recently one film was banned.
