An 11-year-old boy Sydney boy has claimed he was attacked by a group of Muslim students because he brought a salami sandwich to school during Ramadan.
The parents of Antonios Grigoriou removed him and another child from Punchbowl Public School claiming he was bullied because of the lunch his mother packed him, the Daily Telegraph reported.
The Year 5 boy of Greek-Australian descent was reportedly chased and assaulted by the group, before he had to be locked inside the library to escape harassment.
The Muslim boys were said to be offended that Antonios was eating “pig” during the Islamic month of fasting.
The school suspended the boy believed to be the ringleader of the group.
