Crime statistics show there were 269 hate-motivated attacks in the three weeks following the bombings that killed 56 people. Similar crimes during the same period last year totalled 40.

 

Most cases were verbal or minor physical assaults targeting the Muslim community, although there was property damage and attacks on mosques, said Metropolitan Police Assistant Commissioner Tarique Ghaffur.
